Yeah it’s easy to fall into the leader trap. What you end up with is competence and capability issues and dependencies on the “captain”. Control of processes does not make quality any better, but is a perception. If the leader checks every PR it must be good, it ends in burnout and management view this as unscalable.
Turn the Ship Around! is such a great leadership book. I found interesting the concept of "emancipation": creating an environment where your team has the freedom, confidence, and responsibility to decide and own the outcomes, enabling them to grow into leaders.

It really is amazing what happens when you empower your team rather than trying to control them.
