Most CEOs don't struggle because their team can't handle more — they struggle because the structure isn't there to support true ownership.

If everything still runs through you… If decisions, approvals, and client issues keep landing back on your desk… This episode will change how you lead.

I'm breaking down the 5-Part Delegation Framework™ I teach inside my Team Coaching Program — the same system that helps overwhelmed CEOs shift from firefighting to freedom.

You'll learn how to delegate in a way that transfers outcomes, not tasks, and how to build a culture where your team thinks, decides, and leads without you being the bottleneck.

In This Episode:

• Why most delegation fails

• The Delegation Loop Trap (and how to break it)

• The identity shift required to stop micromanaging

• How to transfer ownership — not just workload

• The 5-Part Delegation Framework™

• The Weekly Ownership Pulse habit

• How to choose the right path: DIY, DWY, or DFY
