While empowering employees has many benefits, it also comes with certain challenges:
Resistance to Change: Employees who are accustomed to a more controlled environment may resist taking on new responsibilities. Balancing Autonomy and Accountability: Ensuring that employees use their autonomy responsibly while maintaining accountability can be challenging. Consistency: Maintaining a consistent approach to empowerment across different teams and departments can be difficult. Fear of Mistakes: Employees may fear making mistakes, which can hinder their willingness to take initiative.
