How to Stop Being Your Team's Problem Solver (And Start Building Leaders)
Description
Is your team constantly bringing you problems instead of solutions? Do you find yourself answering "What should I do?" multiple times a day? If so, you've accidentally trained your team to stay dependent on you—and now you're the bottleneck to your own growth.
In this episode, we'll break down the "Incomplete Tasks / Bring-Me-Problems" employee pattern and show you exactly how to fix it through better leadership, not harder work.
You'll learn:
- The 3 studio-specific examples that show you have this problem (unfilled sub requests, upset members, incomplete strategies)
- Why your team doesn't even know they're doing this (and how to illuminate the pattern without shame)
- The exact script to re-establish expectations around 100% ownership vs. 60% completion
- The 3-part ownership framework to teach your team how to own tasks from start to finish
- How to coach instead of correct (and why solving problems for your team keeps them dependent)
- The difference between assignment mode and ownership mode—and how to help your team make the shift
- When and how to close the loop with accountability (without micromanaging)
This episode is for yoga and Pilates studio owners, boutique fitness business owners, and any entrepreneur managing a team who wants to scale without being the constant problem solver.
Listen now to learn how to build a team of leaders who bring you outcomes, not problems.
