O is for Overfunctioning: Doing Everyone’s Job = Not Doing Yours

Description

If drafts keep boomeranging back to your desk, you’re not delegating—you’re rescuing.

🧭 Today’s belief shift: Overfunctioning isn’t leadership; it’s a design pattern that trains the system to rely on you.

People can’t own what you keep rewriting. Ownership needs guardrails and a gate—not a takeover.
