Today, Lydia joins me to change the common negative attitude towards succession planning. She notes the power of taking the time to train, mentor, coach, and understand the strengths and weaknesses of your employees. She distinguishes between delegation and empowerment and shares why it’s important to let your employees fail. She notes that your employees will never become you and explains why that’s okay, and she shares the three keys to leadership.
“I wouldn’t be where I am today if I did not allow my employees to become who they are.”
