One of the hardest things for a leader to learn is that being needed for everything isn't the same as being effective.
If every decision comes back to you, every problem needs your attention, and your team can't move forward without you, it may be time to take a closer look at what you're holding onto.
Leadership isn't about having all the answers. It's about building people who are capable of finding answers, making decisions, solving problems, and moving things forward.
Sometimes the best thing you can do for your team - and your business - is step back and give them room to lead.
