[highlight=transparent]There are endless ways to balance between support and accountability when managing a team. The thin line between too critical and too lenient can be a difficult one to walk for any coach, manager, or leader. But how can you discover what the right balance is for your teams’ specific needs? The only way to find the right balance is through digging deep and learning about those you are leading on an individual and group level. You can then make informed and calculated decisions on what your responses should be and make them based on what will benefit the group to the fullest extent.[/highlight]
