TattvaBodhika Message 8: The Hidden Cost of a Mismatched Manager
They’re loyal.
They’ve delivered results.
So you promoted them to manage others.
But now… team morale has dipped.
Retention is shaky.
Meetings feel tense.
The issue isn’t capability.
It’s compatibility.
Not everyone is meant to manage — and certainly not manage every kind of team.
A Fire-dominant manager may push too hard for a Water-dominant team.
An Earth-dominant one may stifle an Air-driven creative team.
A Water leader may avoid necessary conflict.
An Ether leader may confuse others with abstraction.
TattvaBodhika helps decode these patterns before damage happens.
It reveals why great performers sometimes fail in leadership roles —
and how to realign them where they naturally thrive.
Before you blame attitude or effort,
Check the element.
Misplacement costs culture.
Misunderstanding costs people.
