One of the most under-rated tools is the tool of creating GENUINE support inside the team.
This is particularly hard for two types of clients we have.
- Control freaks 🙂
- Perfectionists 🙂
That is a genuine learning environment where it’s totally ok to stuff up and make a mistake.
Yes I said that.
As a business leader at times this can be hard, because you always want to jump in and FIX or DO IT right.
However, to grow the business it’s key to do exactly the opposite. That is to step back and create the space you need.
While I know you may KNOW this? I really hope this serves as a reminder for you on how you can create opportunities for yourself and your team to stretch and grow.
This can only happen if you equip others by letting go and stepping back.
We do have more to say on how to address this, however for now, I wanted to bring this into your awareness and remind you of the opportunity awaiting you.
The opportunity to have more time to yourself for strategic moves, once you learn to support others enough that they step into their competence.
And this, starts with a decision.
