Leadership Is A Mindset Shift

  • Leadership means doing less of the right things, not doing more for others.
ADVICE

Stop Overowning Work

  • Stop overowning work and intentionally delegate tasks to grow others and free your time.
  • Do less of the right things to move from execution to leadership.
INSIGHT

Fixing Creates Dependency

  • Fixers solve others' problems and become the team's bottleneck through dependency.
