Transform Your Team into Independent Problem-Solvers

Stop putting out other peoples’ fires.

Free up your time and mental space to focus on the picture things that really matter.

Does your team…

Come to you with questions they should be able to answer themselves?
Wait for your approval on decisions they could make independently?
Take less initiative on their own than you know they are capable of?
Make you the referee in their conflicts?

It’s frustrating when you lead a team of capable people who don’t take the necessary ownership of their own work.

It results in team underperformance, and gets in the way of you being able to do your own job, since you’re too busy overseeing theirs.

I help teams work better.
