Do some informal research and come up with ideas before going to your boss to fix your issue. Show the business case of why the company should invest or budget for that new piece of equipment. Paint the picture of how much more productive you would be if you had the resources that are missing. Make your case about results and productivity instead of about easing your own work-load.
Ownership is a state of mind and a heartfelt commitment. When you take ownership, you show your interest and initiation, instead of just showing up, clocking in and waiting for direction. Perhaps your boss is difficult to work with. But the point is, if you are still working for the micromanager, you still have to own the fact that you are still there.
Even when you work for a micromanager, you can take some ownership by seeking clarification, becoming resourceful, and using conversations to drive results. If you truly feel stuck where you are, map out a plan to transfer to a different department or different boss more suitable for your growth. Taking ownership while you are an employee helps you to walk the talk when you become a boss. While ownership is about mindset, accountability is about measurement. Document how many sales calls you made each day and then report this back to your boss.
Your awareness may elevate or you may feel discouraged. Measurement will help you see the truth about your own performance, help you to create realistic expectations and set stretch goals. Connect the dots between the numbers and your results, whatever they may be. Become a scientist and experiment with different kinds of measurements.
