When leaders start micromanaging and overreaching, there's really no more autonomy and the responsibilities for outcomes are taken away from the individual. Notice: This can happen at the management-level as well! Similar with metrics, it becomes a diversion to attend to waste (extra efforts to produce quality data), while removing autonomy and opportunities. Those metrics that do work, are owned by people themselves, and are used as tools, not as a whip, carrot or other games of diversions. As tools, the metrics can be changed or removed, as seen necessary.
