Entrepreneurs often face leadership barriers as they struggle to articulate their vision and maintain accountability. Without clear direction and strong leadership skills, they may find themselves plateauing, unable to unlock the next stage of growth. How can leaders bridge this gap and develop the mindset and strategies to scale?

According to leadership coach Michael Agugliaro II, many entrepreneurs set ambitious objectives — like reaching $10 million in revenue — without specifying the purpose behind them. If leaders lack a well-defined vision, their team is less likely to buy into the company’s mission. To develop and communicate a distinctive vision, Michael recommends creating a three-sentence-long mantra and giving your team a stake in the company’s growth to ensure the mission resonates and aligns with their personal and professional growth goals. He also notes the role of personal development, self-discipline, and accountability in dismantling growth barriers.
