For years, Luke Jimmink carried nearly every aspect of his business himself—from event execution and customer support to systems and operations. But after purchasing the company and stepping fully into ownership, he's facing a challenge every growing entrepreneur eventually encounters: learning how to hand responsibility to someone else.

In this coaching conversation, Zach helps Luke prepare for his first full-time hire. Together they unpack the difference between delegation and clarity, explore how to define measurable outcomes for a new role, and build a practical roadmap for onboarding and leadership.

• Why delegation is more than handing off tasks
• The difference between responsibilities and outcomes
• How to define "winning" for a new employee
• Building Key Result Areas (KRAs) that create clarity
• Creating a practical 90-day onboarding plan
• Setting expectations without micromanaging
• Developing employees who solve problems, not just identify them
• Why clarity is one of the greatest gifts a leader can give
