Building a seven figure advisory firm requires more than hiring good people. It requires creating an environment where your team can take meaningful ownership and where important work does not keep finding its way back to you. In this episode, Nick Davies explains why past hiring disappointments and the fear of losing control can make delegation feel risky, even when you know leverage is essential. He shares a practical way to move work forward during time already scheduled with your team, turning everyday tasks into coaching opportunities while improving accountability and follow through. You will learn how to rely less on willpower, use your calendar to make execution easier, and help team members build the confidence and capability your firm needs to grow without demanding more of your time or sacrificing service to clients.
