Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?
- We had a reorg — lost a key person, changed direction — and suddenly the team that used to hum is fighting and second-guessing again, and I’m treating it like they broke instead of seeing the ground shifted under them.
- The project is wrapping and everyone’s just drifting off to the next thing with no acknowledgment of what we built together
- My team feels off and I keep reacting to each flare-up as its own thing, but I can’t actually say what phase we’re in
- I just took over a brand-new team and everyone’s being polite and looking to me for everything
- My team is genuinely running well without me now, but I keep inserting myself into decisions they could make
