Ep 105 Short - Command & control is killing your business!

Discover why the old‑school “command and control” leadership style is silently draining your business. In this episode of The Accidental Business Owner Podcast, Jay Allen from My True North breaks down how micromanagement destroys morale, slows growth, and pushes your best people out the door. Jay shares eye‑opening findings from a major U.S. university study that analysed how employees respond to pay rises, incentives, and the personal factors that really drive loyalty. The results? Nine retention drivers outrank salary—and most businesses ignore them entirely. If you want a team that performs better, stays longer, and actually enjoys coming to work, this conversation gives you the roadmap. Expect practical takeaways on leadership, culture, trust, autonomy, and the hidden motivators that transform workplaces.
