Are you making things harder than they need to be? Despite our best intentions, we can sometimes overcomplicate the simplest of tasks.
Bill is used to working with passionate leaders who want to make the world a better place. The problem comes with delegation. An active founder or leader is a good thing, but it can actually make everyone around them hesitant to take on a task, as they know they’ll eventually have their hand in it.
The key to creating a well-functioning team is trust. In order for you to trust, you have to pull back and let your team learn, and even potentially fail. The Rockefeller habits checklist is a great starting point to get your fingers out of the cookie jar and empower your people to do good work.
