Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?
- Someone on my team is clearly going through something heavy and I’ve just been carrying on talking deliverables like nothing’s wrong
- I open every tough conversation with a quick "I really value you, but…" and I’ve noticed people now flinch the moment I compliment them
- I keep letting this person’s slipping work slide because I like them and don’t want to make it awkward, and I’ve told myself that’s kindness
- I treat feedback like one dial running from gentle to harsh, so every time I want to be kinder I water down the truth, and every time I want to be honest I come off cold
- I care about my people so much that I’ve started absorbing their personal crises and trying to fix their lives, and I can’t tell anymore where being a supportive manager stops and me overstepping into someone I shouldn’t be begins.
