Guest Article: Leaders Who Care Too Much Have Control Issues by Jennifer Miller

It’s good to work with a boss who cares. As with most things in life, too much of a good thing can cause problems. Compassion in a work team leader is a desirable trait, but leaders who care overly much tend to avoid critical decision-making and stunt their employees’ growth.
