Delegation Overload: The Mistake That Sinks Blue-Collar Businesses


Listen Later

This week on The Aro Benaiah Show, we sit down with Doug Thorpe veteran Army officer, Fortune 500 executive, serial entrepreneur, and now a sought-after leadership coach. Doug grew up working hands-on with his single mom in her interior design business before shouldering $75 million in military responsibility at just 23. He opens up about why real leadership is about connecting with your crew, not just barking orders and how delegating the right way can save your business from grinding to a halt.


We dig into practical steps for fighting burnout, bridging gaps across generations, and the make-or-break difference between a manager and a team-builder. Doug's hard-won wisdom is tailor-made for tradespeople ready to build something bigger than themselves.
