Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO. Just a little over a one minute investment every day for a lifetime of results. There's a difference between responsibility and authority.
You will delegate authority, but never responsibility, right? At the end of the day, you're still in charge of your team. Your team screws up a year from now, it's on you. Now, authority is, okay Dan, I give you the authority to make this decision.
You bring us to this point in the project and so-and-so will take over from there, so-and-so will take over from there. But the result or the achievement or lack of of that project would still be your responsibility. All right, so you're on the hook for it.
The goal is to build their authority so they can take initiative and they can run or lead parts of that project.
Like and follow this podcast so you can learn more. My name is Carl Gould and this has been your #70secondCEO.
