About this listen
You say you don't have enough time. Your team says they're waiting for you to approve things. Both are true — and both are your fault. In this three-part episode, Joe and Trevor diagnose The Delegation Disaster: the micromanagement trap that keeps talented leaders buried in low-leverage work while their teams stagnate around them. This isn't about laziness or low standards. It's about three specific, hidden fears that cause even the most capable executives to hold onwhen they should be letting go — and the precise tools to break the cycle. 🛑 The Fear of Exposure — why you do work two tiers below your pay grade 🕹️ The Fear of Loss of Control — why you correct the how instead of checking the what 👻 The Fear of Becoming Obsolete — the surprising reason you won't teach your team what you know 💯 The 70% Rule — the delegation standard that frees your calendar without dropping your standards 📜 The Outcome, Not Method Contract — the five-point handover that endsmicromanagement for good Your challenge this week: identify one task taking three or more hours of your time that someone on your team could do at 70% of your quality. Delegate it today. Labyrinth Mind: The Executive's Guide to Mindset, Wellbeing & Business Success.
