Every January, we feel it, don't we? That pressure to be more. More visionary, more decisive, more capable. We look at the year ahead and we unconsciously slip into hero mode. We start believing that great leadership means having all the answers, carrying all the weight, being the smartest person in the room.
If I don't do it, it won't get done right. How many times have you thought that?
But what if everything we've been taught about leadership has it completely backward?
I've watched countless leaders burn out trying to be the hero their organization needs. The leader who can't find anyone else to get it right. The one who answers every email personally because no one else knows our people like I do. The leader who can't take a day off because my team isn't ready. The one who plans everything, trains everyone, shows up early because someone has to hold it all together.
They're exhausted. Their teams are underutilized. And the organization just isn't growing the way it could.
There's a better way. And it starts with a radical mindset shift.
