Your systems are solid. Your team is prepped. The project plan is ready to roll.

But then your client goes quiet. Approvals stall, decisions get delayed, and suddenly they become the bottleneck.

In this episode of The OBM Show, I’m diving into what to do when clients stall and how you, as the OBM, can lead with clarity, and confidence. Because here’s the truth: bottlenecks are just opportunities for leading differently.

Here’s what we cover:
  • Why bottlenecks happen (and what they reveal about leadership gaps)
  • How to name pause points clearly without creating tension
  • Tools and systems to make decision-making fast and simple
  • Boundaries that protect your timelines and keep projects on track
  • How to step into the CEO gap so your client feels supported, not pressured

Whether you’re just starting out or already established as an OBM, this episode will give you the tools and mindset shifts you need to turn frustrating delays into opportunities to lead.
