Welcome back to the Evolved Radio Podcast! Today, I’ve got a really fun and insightful episode lined up for you. Dustin Puryear and I are diving into the “Peter Principle.” that all-too-familiar scenario where someone keeps getting promoted for being good at your job, but eventually land in a role where you’re suddenly feeling out of your depth.

We chat about the common traps people fall into on the career ladder, why owners and managers struggle to let go, and how the difference between delegation, abdication, and micromanagement shapes the success of your team.

Plus, we’ll dig into practical advice around KPIs (you know I love talking dashboards), the most common mistake managers make when promoting team members, and even some hard-won lessons from the front lines—including what happens when someone has the courage to step down from a role that isn’t the right fit.

Whether you’re thinking about your own career path, building a team, or just love some good management strategy, this episode is packed with practical takeaways you can start using today.

Let’s jump in!
