You hired talented people, asked them to lead, and yet they're still coming to you for final approval on *everything*. It feels like you're micromanaging, even though you desperately want to be hands-off. You don't want to reject their need for support, but this constant stream of decisions, big and small, is keeping you buried in the day-to-day.

This isn't just annoying; it's a critical bottleneck that prevents you from scaling and keeps your team from truly stepping into ownership. When you're the default decision-maker, you're doing two jobs at once, and your team isn't building the muscle they need.

In this episode of Real Talk: Leading Small Teams, we dive into how to break free from the decision-making weeds.

In this episode, you'll learn:

• Why being involved in every decision creates a "death by a thousand paper cuts" and limits your ability to scale.
• How  constantly making the final call prevents your team from taking full accountability
• The difference in how high-performing versus struggling teams approach decision-making, and what does it mean for you
• How can you build your team's decision-making capacity instead of just offloading tasks?
• How articulating your own decision-making process empowers your team to make aligned choices

This isn't just about freeing up your time; it's about unlocking your team's full potential and enabling true growth.
