For me the biggest struggles have been the accountability trap, the feedback taken way to personally and me being the bottleneck of the business.
For the accountability trap - I will be trying as you said asking them for a deadline and handing them the ownership so they feel in control of the situation. Stop rescuing and Start coaching! Love this.
For Feedback - Great advice to follow - Share the impact of the action because usually the other person feels they have been attacked!
Ah I love this so much, thank you for sharing! It sounds like you’re already doing the hard work of shifting your mindset and your systems, which is no small thing. The accountability trap gets so many of us, and I’ve found exactly what you said, handing over ownership instead of jumping in to rescue, can be such a game-changer.
And yes to the feedback point! Sharing the impact instead of making it feel like an attack helps people stay open rather than shut down. You’ve got this
Let me know how it goes when you try it with your team, H
