If you have set up your organization so all (a lot, most things, too many things, the “important” things) have to come through you, then you have put yourself in a place of importance, but you’re not leading well.
Training and empowering others to do the jobs (yes, even the important ones) and letting them do it, is the mark of a good leader.
Being the center of the universe doesn’t scale, and will only wear you out, and chase away superstars.
How do you stack up on this?
That is a very good question.
How do I stack up on this?
Think about it and let us know.
You are all unique and created to share your gift with the world. We need you. We love you. You are valuable.
