Fear of delegation, and its cousin, fear of replaceability
“Fear of delegation is the belief that no one is as competent to solve a problem as you are. This kind of thinking (which at times may be justified) usually results from the belief that tasks will inevitably be done poorly if not done by capable hands—yours, of course. But how often is this really masking the fear that others can perform jobs you once thought only you could accomplish? This in turn leads to the fear of replaceability…” Ricardo Semler, author of Maverick: The Success Story Behind the World’s Most Unusual Workplace
