As an executive, your success doesn’t come from doing everything yourself—it comes from focusing on what you do best and empowering your team to handle the rest.
Early in my career, I believed being a great leader meant staying involved in every decision and solving every problem. It felt like the only way to succeed. But that approach left me stretched thin and limited my team’s potential.
The real shift came when I embraced a new mindset: Focus on where I add the most value and delegate the rest to those best equipped to handle it.
Lead Smarter: A New Way of Thinking
Play to Your Strengths: Identify what you do better than anyone else—whether it’s strategy, relationship-building, or decision-making in critical moments.
Delegate the Important Stuff: Delegation isn’t just handing off small tasks—it’s trusting your team with meaningful responsibilities that match their strengths.
Empower, Don’t Micromanage: Give your team the tools, authority, and confidence to own their roles while you stay focused on high-impact work.
Stay in Your Zone of Genius: The highest-performing leaders operate where they’re most effective and rely on others to fill in the gaps.
Your Leadership Legacy
By focusing on what you do best and allowing your team to step up, you create a culture of trust, growth, and success. You’ll see better results and develop future leaders ready to take the next shot.
