Probably the hardest thing I ever had to do in business was learning to let go and trust my staff.
I thought no one could do the job better than me. Does this sound familiar?
If you want to grow your business, you must learn to let go of the day-to-day tasks and trust your staff. The reason you recruited them in the first place is because you know they are up to the job.
Letting go is more of a mindset shift than a physical one. It can also be very difficult to do, especially if you like things done a certain way.
From experience I can tell you that it takes time. People make mistakes and that’s fine, we all learn from these.
Creating the right type of culture at work is important in motivating your team and helping them to see where you want the business to grow.
My question to you is…
Can you trust your staff and let them take responsibility?
