You want to grow as a leader, but your team can’t function without you.

You’re stuck in the weeds because delegating feels risky.

You know you should make space for creativity, but the urgent stuff always comes first.

Sound familiar?

This week’s episode is all about deliberate leadership and why it’s the non-negotiable factor in company success.

Larry R. Armstrong, former CEO and Chairman of Ware Malcomb, shares what he learned leading an international firm for nearly three decades, and why he believes leadership should be built as intentionally as architecture.

Inside, we dig into:

  • Why training your replacement is the only way to move up
  • Delegation vs. abdication, and how to strike the right balance
  • How vulnerability and trust at the top ripple through the whole organization
  • The role of creativity in solving problems and fueling long-term growth

Tune in and hear directly from a CEO who’s been in the trenches and shares what worked, what didn’t, and how he built leaders by design.
