About this episode

Balancing Short-Term Execution with Sustainable Growth

As a business owner, your focus is often split between the immediate needs of your business and planning for the future. However, as your business grows and you have a team, you can't always be the one focused on the short term. Today, we’re talking about what it would look like for you, as the business owner, to focus on vision, strategy, and growth while your team is executing the day-to-day.

In This Episode You’ll Learn:

  • The importance of delegating daily tasks to the team while you focus on visionary leadership and problem-solving to ensure sustainable growth.
  • What it actually means to work ON your business instead of IN your business, including what to prioritize as CEO.
  • Why transitioning from short-term to long-term focus to drive sustainable growth is not an overnight process, and how to get started today.


Next Steps:

  • The Expansion Code is OPEN for enrollment! This is your roadmap to scaling. I will show you the common thought errors and mistakes you might encounter, as well as what to focus on at each phase as you scale so you can reach your next level. Click HERE to join before we start next week!
