INSIGHTS FOR GROWTH

Her open door had become an open funnel. Every decision flowed through her — not because her team was incapable, but because she’d trained them that her door was faster than figuring it out themselves.

I’ve heard some version of this from hundreds of leaders: I’m working harder than I’ve ever worked, and somehow I feel like I’m making less impact. It’s not a skills problem. It’s an altitude problem.
