The Leadership Habit That Quietly Trains Teams To Stay Dependent

In this short excerpt from The Leader as Coach, Mark Murphy explains why the instinct to say, “It’ll be faster if I just do it myself,” feels responsible in the moment but often becomes one of the most expensive habits a leader can have.

Build Managers Who Coach Instead Of Rescue

Most managers were promoted because they were excellent individual performers. But once they lead a team, their value comes from what they help other people produce. The Leader as Coach is a six-week online certificate program that teaches managers how to shift from solving every problem themselves to developing employees who think, act, and follow through with greater ownership.

Participants learn how to run better coaching conversations, ask sharper questions, build real commitment, diagnose struggling employees, and create accountability without defaulting to pressure, rescue, or micromanagement.

Practical coaching structure Give managers a repeatable way to turn one-on-ones into development conversations.
Better employee ownership Help employees think through problems instead of waiting for managers to hand them answers.
Tools for struggling employees Teach leaders how to adapt coaching when people are overwhelmed, depleted, stuck, or cynical.
