Episode 276 | Top 5 Things Leadership Needs From You So They Can Stop Bothering You and You Can Finally Focus on the Big Picture with Lisa Besler


Listen Later

Let’s be real - building a leadership team isn’t just about hiring strong people. It’s about letting them lead. If you’ve ever found yourself answering endless questions from your clinical directors or leadership staff, wondering why they can’t just run things without you, this episode is for you.

In this week’s episode, I sit down with leadership expert and clinical director Lisa Besler to break down the top 5 things leadership teams need from YOU, the group practice owner, to thrive without constant oversight. We dig into the mindset shifts and practice management systems that help you step out of the weeds and into visionary leadership.

We’re getting real about control, trust, and how to delegate tasks effectively without everything falling apart. If you want to focus on the big picture and finally stop being your team's go-to problem solver, this episode is a must-listen.

In this episode, we unpack:
  • Why most owners think they’re delegating - but aren’t. Hint: If your team still needs your approval for everything, you're not really practicing delegation in leadership.
  • What true ownership looks like on a leadership team. Discover how to shift from being a decider to empowering clinical leadership to own results (even the messy ones).
  • The one thing you’re likely skipping that’s sabotaging your team’s success. It’s not flashy, but it’s foundational - and it’s the heart of good practice management systems.
  • How to train your team to think like leaders. We’ll show you what real mentorship looks like inside solid leadership development practices. Why letting go is hard - and how to do it anyway. Lisa shares a powerful mindset reframe that helped her stop micromanaging and start trusting her people.

Building a sustainable practice means building a sustainable team. 

And that means it’s time to take leadership development practices, delegation in leadership, and your internal practice management systems seriously. When you delegate tasks effectively, you create space for innovation, growth, and the freedom to finally focus on what really matters.

Tune in to the full episode now to hear Lisa’s top five game-changing tips - and start creating the kind of clinical leadership team that actually leads.
