E18: Stop Doing It All Yourself - Learning to Lead and Let Go
Manage episode 503657996 series 3663074
Leading a business isn’t just about being the best at the work - it’s about helping other people grow into it. And that can feel really uncomfortable when you know you could do the job faster (and probably better) yourself.
In this solo episode of Creating the Curve, Anna Bravington shares the messy, often painful lessons she’s learned about leadership - from letting staff walk all over her in her twenties, to realising the only way to step back was to invest time in teaching others.
She explores why so many founders struggle to delegate, how “just doing it yourself” holds both you and your team back, and why passing on your knowledge is essential for building businesses that don’t depend on you working 24/7.
Expect stories of early management disasters, military-inspired lessons on letting go of control, and practical advice for building a team that can thrive without you.
