In this episode of the Made for More podcast, Ally Nitschke delves into the topic of micromanagement. Sharing insights from various industries she works with, Ally starts with myth-busting around micromanagement. She addresses the fear many leaders have of being labelled as micromanagers and debunks seven common myths. Stay tuned for part two where she will explore the problems with micromanagement.
Holding people accountable is a crucial aspect of effective leadership and management. In the podcast episode, Ally Nitschke emphasises that holding people accountable is not synonymous with micromanaging. She clarifies that setting clear expectations and following up to ensure that desired results are achieved is a fundamental responsibility of a manager. By setting clear goals and monitoring progress towards those goals, leaders can ensure that their team is on track and aligned with organisational objectives.
Accountability fosters a culture of responsibility and ownership within a team. It provides clarity on expectations and helps in tracking progress towards goals. When leaders hold their team members accountable, it promotes transparency, communication, and a sense of urgency to meet deadlines and deliver results. This proactive approach to accountability can enhance team performance and overall productivity.
Micromanaging, on the other hand, involves excessive control and involvement in every detail of a team member's work. It undermines trust, stifles creativity, and hampers autonomy. By distinguishing between holding people accountable and micromanaging, leaders can create a balanced approach that empowers their team members while ensuring that tasks are completed effectively and efficiently.
Following up on deadlines is a crucial aspect of effective management and leadership. In the podcast episode, Ally Nitschke emphasises that checking in on overdue tasks and following up on deadlines is not considered micromanaging but rather a fundamental management responsibility. By setting clear expectations and deadlines for tasks or projects, managers ensure that the team stays on track and delivers results in a timely manner.
When managers fail to follow up on deadlines, it can lead to missed targets, delays in project completion, and a lack of accountability within the team. Ally Nitschke highlights the importance of holding team members accountable for meeting deadlines and delivering results. This practice not only ensures that projects progress smoothly but also helps in maintaining a high level of productivity and efficiency within the team.
By actively monitoring deadlines and progress, managers can make necessary adjustments, provide support where needed, and address any potential roadblocks that may hinder the team's success. This proactive approach to following up on deadlines demonstrates effective leadership and a commitment to achieving organisational goals.
While some may perceive following up on deadlines as micromanaging, it is, in fact, a vital management practice that fosters accountability, drives productivity, and ensures the successful completion of projects. Managers who prioritise timely follow-ups on deadlines exhibit strong leadership skills and contribute to a culture of excellence within their teams.
Setting clear guidelines and being organised and detail-oriented are crucial aspects of effective leadership. In the podcast episode, Ally Nitschke emphasises the importance of setting clear guidelines as a way to provide direction and boundaries for the team. She mentions that setting clear guidelines is not micromanaging but rather a kind and essential practice in leadership. By defining boundaries and offering clear direction, leaders can ensure that their team understands expectations and can work towards achieving the desired outcomes.

In today's episode of the Made for More podcast, we had the pleasure of welcoming back Josephine Palmero, who previously joined us in season five. Josephine, an expert on imposter syndrome, shared invaluable insights into this pervasive issue that affects many high achievers.
Josephine discussed her personal journey with imposter syndrome, detailing her experiences in high-responsibility roles at Telstra and as an academic in organisational psychology. Despite her successes, she often battled feelings of doubt and incompetence, which she later addressed through therapy and her background in psychology.
We delved into the definition of imposter syndrome, characterised by a chronic sense of self-doubt and a fear of being exposed as a fraud, despite evident competencies. Josephine highlighted that this phenomenon is not limited to women, as it was once thought, but is also prevalent among men.
The conversation also covered strategies for overcoming imposter syndrome. Josephine emphasised the importance of building confidence, not by proving competence but by fostering a belief in one's ability to handle challenges. She shared practical tips such as sharing failures, reframing thoughts, taking credit for achievements, and avoiding detrimental social comparisons.
Josephine's insights are not only enlightening but also empowering, encouraging us to transform our imposters into leaders. For those looking to connect with Josephine or learn more about her work, she can be found on LinkedIn and Instagram.

In this podcast episode, Ally Nitschke and Josephine Palermo delve into the topic of femininity and feminine power in the workplace and leadership roles. Drawing on her expertise as a PhD holder in education and her extensive experience in corporate Australia, Palermo asserts that femininity is not only relevant but serves as the foundation for modern leadership. She argues that recruitment processes should consider not only technical expertise but also relational capabilities, which can be found in both men and women. Palermo emphasises the importance of creating a work environment and culture that fosters collaboration and allows individuals to thrive. Additionally, she highlights the need for senior leaders to unlearn outdated behaviours and become allies to women in the workplace.
The discussion continues with an exploration of the challenges faced by executives today, including increased interdependencies between functional roles, the need for vulnerability and personal leadership, and the importance of involving more women in finding solutions. Palermo shares an example from her book, where a male executive berates a male manager for his reluctance to engage with a stakeholder, using derogatory language. A senior female manager calls out this behaviour, prompting an open dialogue about its implications. Rather than focusing solely on behaviour change, Palermo advocates for dialogue and self-reflection, asking questions such as "What if we did it differently?" and "What are my biases?". She emphasises that men and women face similar challenges and encourages compassion and open dialogue to help men understand and navigate these issues.
To wrap up the episode, Palermo offers five tips for effective leadership, including believing in one's unique feminine strengths, gaining awareness of biases, motivating individuals through autonomy, and prioritising teamwork. Listeners are invited to visit www.risingtofemininepower.com to learn more about Palermo's book, "Rising to Feminine Power," which features Wonder Woman on the cover.
Josephine Palermo is a sought-after speaker, author, leadership coach, mentor, and podcast host with a deep understanding of gender psychology and organizational dynamics. Her philosophy centres around feminine power, as documented in her latest book "Rising to Feminine Power: The Lasso of Truth," where she explores the journey women go through to achieve true feminine power and addresses the struggles many women face with power. Josephine's popular podcast, "Gears, Action, Growth: Shifting Business Culture One Conversation at a Time," showcases her engaging conversational style and expertise, providing valuable knowledge, resources, and inspiration to the audience. Her key focus areas include helping women overcome barriers, viewing leadership through a positive feminine lens, and creating enriched and inclusive cultures that support women leaders to thrive.
