First of all, is a matter of personal attitude. Second, as @Riyadh stated is a matter of organizational culture. Third, people that performs micro-management and organizations that performs micro-management as culture are totally lost. I can say it based on my personal experience where from years organizations hired me to change this type of things mainly when they tried to transform to Agile. You can search into the internet a case about how US Marines Corp behaves today. I have personal experience into other hierarchical military structure too. Sometimes people confuse hierarchical structures with performing micro-management on them. Returning to personal attitude is a matter of trust in people. Here we return to culture but country culture in this case.

Theory X has its benefits ie. the military, but theory Y is predominately accepted in business.
Hi Sante,
well the culture of military is completely different from our civil work environment they follow orders do first and then discuss or even no argument, no question asked, lots of abusive, so if you can do it in military it doesn't mean you should do it in civil world, I see lots of military retiree officers they can not do civil job and be successful leaders because they never learn to be a good team player. they would fire the whole team LOL

Very true, it must be difficult for some military leaders to enter corporate life after the military, especially at the middle management level.

Not at all. However, I used to have that line of thinking, especially in roles where I have cemented myself with proven successful techniques.
I soon came to realize, however, that there is no one "right way" of doing something. Giving your team the freedom to perform their work their way while guiding them to achieve the goals of the project / program creates win-win scenarios for the team. Saving Changes...
