Founders often start businesses with a do-it-yourself attitude, managing every aspect of operations. However, to scale effectively, they need to let go of the 'hero' mentality as this bottlenecks growth. This article emphasizes that while being indispensable may feel rewarding, it creates a fragile business structure. Entrepreneurs should focus on building teams and trusting others to foster resilience and adaptability. Without delegation, businesses risk stagnation and dependency on one individual, ultimately undermining leadership and progress.
The hero-CEO model doesn't scale. It burns out. And often, it takes the company down with it.
The 'indispensable' feeling is dangerous; if you're the only one who solves a problem, you've created a fragile system.
