Are you an entrepreneur stuck in the endless cycle of solving every problem in your business? This episode, recorded live in Austin, Texas, dives into the mindset shift needed to break the $3 Million Revenue Ceiling and stop being the bottleneck. Lars from Calgary Lock & Safe, Tony from Assured Security, and Chad from Loc-Doc Security discuss the core philosophy from the book Who Not How, challenging the old-school mindset of "I can do it all myself."
They explore the critical difference between being a problem-solver (which leads to decision fatigue) and building a team of people (the 'whos') who can solve problems better and faster. Tony shares his realization that delegation isn't about teaching others to do things his way, but setting clear outcome-based objectives and letting specialists find a 10x better path. The hosts stress that scaling requires overcoming the fear that a task won't be done perfectly and realizing that an 80% done task from an employee is often a better investment of the owner's time than 100% perfection. They also share a valuable tip on using voice notes and AI tools to clearly articulate outcomes and reduce communication friction.
