Business Builders (Pt.29): How To Build Leadership In Your Team
Welcome back to another episode of Business Builders. If you’re the one holding up progress in your business because everything runs through you—this episode is for you. We’re diving into why leadership isn’t just a CEO thing (surprise: it’s a team sport!) and how to build leadership at every level of your business—without needing fancy titles or expensive hires.
Key topics covered:
- Why true freedom in business starts when your team starts leading too
- The difference between assigning tasks vs. owning outcomes
- How to encourage problem-solving by answering questions with questions
- The mindset shift from “helper” to “owner of the role” (without needing them to be an entrepreneur)
- What might be holding you back from letting go—and how to move through it
Challenge
Pick one team member and give them an outcome, not a task. Let them lead the process—and coach them along the way.
Because leadership is contagious—and it starts with you.
