Same amount of my time. Five times the organizational output.
Your personal capacity: 40-60 hours per week. Your team’s combined capacity: 400-600+ hours per week. When they’re waiting for you, you’re wasting hundreds of productive hours. Strategic delegation doesn’t increase your hours—it multiplies what your team accomplishes independently while you focus on leadership work only you can do.
Take Action: Calculate your current ratio. How many hours do you spend doing work others could do versus work that requires your unique leadership capability? Write it down.
