1 BIG IDEA
You can’t reach bold goals alone. Empowered teams are how leaders multiply their impact—and that means creating the systems, structure, and trust they need to succeed.

4 WAYS TO APPLY THIS

  • Clarify mid-year goals with your team—not just for them.
  • Equip your team with tools and encouragement to own their part.
  • Let go of control by modeling ownership, not micromanagement.
  • Shift your mindset from solo operator to system builder.

3 QUESTIONS TO ASK YOURSELF

  • What team-level goals need to be clarified or re-committed to for the rest of the year?
  • How might I shift from doing for my team to building with my team?
  • Where might I need to trust more—and control less?
