Most founders say they want a leadership team that can run the business. Then they keep approving every contract, sitting in on every interview, and showing up on every job site. In this episode, Joey Brannon and Tommy Rohrlack work through why letting others decide is so hard for founders, the org-chart math that says you’re capped no matter what the revenue looks like, and what changes when an owner finally hands over real decisions.
