Show Notes:
Sometimes, you have to let go of what your job typically is in order to let team members grow.
For reasons of fit or reasons of competence, a team member can hold you back.
It can take a fresh perspective to notice inefficiencies in your process.
It’s exciting to see where people will go once their time has been freed up.
When people have the time and mental energy, they’ll be more alert, curious, responsive, and resourceful.
Team members who are freed up have time to think about other opportunities for revenue.
You're probably only relying on your team 50% of what you could be.
The minute you think of a new idea, think about who can help you with it.
