Reimagining HR with Trina Sunday

30. Micromanagers in the Age of Remote Work: The Final Boss

Trina Sunday Episode 30

Is your remote team thriving, or just surviving under the weight of constant check-ins?

In this episode, I’m unpacking why micromanagement has gone into overdrive in remote and hybrid workplaces, what’s really driving it (spoiler: it’s not your team), and what HR can do to shift it. I’ll walk you through how to spot the red flags, how to have the hard conversations, and what it takes to build trust without losing accountability.

If you're an HR leader, people manager, or just quietly clutching your calendar because your boss wants screenshots, this one’s for you. Let’s stop rewarding control and start enabling clarity, ownership, and actual high performance.

Have you seen micromanagement creeping into your culture? What’s one trust-building shift your organisation could make? Let’s connect on LinkedIn and talk it through.
