303: Prioritize Autonomy & Create A Culture of Ownership with Tina Moe


Listen Later

What happens when you ditch micromanagement and start leading with trust?

Tina Moe, CPA and founder of ACT Services, shares how she turned workaholic tendencies into a thriving culture of autonomy. From dropping timesheets to rewarding longevity with unlimited PTO, she’s redefining leadership—one empowered team member at a time.

If you’re tired of feeling like you have to do it all, this episode is your permission slip to let go, level up, and build a team that owns their work. 🔥

Key Takeaways:
  • Autonomy creates problem solvers, not just employees. Encourage team members to take ownership by bringing solutions alongside challenges.
  • Control is an illusion. Leaders who struggle with autonomy often believe they must maintain control over outcomes—but true leadership is about trust and clarity.
  • EOS provides a framework for autonomy with accountability. Defining clear roles and responsibilities gives team members confidence to own their work.
  • Workaholic culture is not sustainable. Building a business shouldn’t come at the cost of health and relationships.
  • Small shifts create big impact. Simple changes—like eliminating timesheets or offering flexible PTO—can reinforce a culture of trust.
