It's Not A Process If It Only Works When YOU Do It

You take a day off and everything grinds to a halt, because the “process” is actually just you. In this episode, Linda van Egmond shows you how to turn what’s in your head into a system your team can run without constant check-ins.What You'll Learn:The Hook: Why your phone blows up the moment you step away, and what that reveals about your business.Reality Check: How growth can increase pressure when the critical knowledge lives in one person’s head.The Shift: A process doesn’t have to be complicated, it just has to make the work repeatable without you.The Move: The Dependency Audit to start removing you as the bottleneck:Make two columns: “Things only I can do” vs. “Things only I do (but others could do)”Pick 3 items from the second column to eliminate firstDocument each one: trigger, outcome, steps, owner, decision pointsHand it off, coach once, then let it run at 80% (and maybe better)The Wrap: Start with three processes, hand them off, and watch your time come back bit by bit.Key Takeaway: If it only works when you do it, it’s not a process, it’s a problem you can fix.Ready to get your time back?
