Your team is capable, your KPIs are in place, and you're still the last stop for every decision that involves a trade-off between two departments. Your people escalate instead of deciding, and you can't figure out why accountability keeps failing no matter how clearly you set expectations.

This episode is for the founder-led business owner who wants an autonomous team and is tired of being the triangulation point for every conflict. I break down why "hold your team accountable" collapses without a shared definition of success, how siloed goals build conflict into the business by design, and what must be in place before your team can make decisions without you.
