Do you feel that having a leader that motivates you to take decisions, boosts your confidence?

Question

A leader can guide you, correct you and let you take ownership of the activities you are dealing with.

In some cases, when someone micro-manages you, there will be more room for mistakes from your end as you would act on how they perceive.

Definitely it does and it leads to better outcomes for all involved.  Micro-management just leads to stress for all involved (no one will ever do you like you, so don't even try and force them to work like), prevents any form of creativity and is just a huge time waste.

@stevenbirchall totally true, when you have someone on your team it is only because you found them useful. There is no point going and checking back again and again
