87% of businesses are family-owned. We argue it’s closer to 100%. After all, even the President of the USA is subject to family influence more than we might care to acknowledge.

So many entrepreneurs and leaders are overwhelmed - burnout is so popular some act as though there is FOMO if they aren’t so afflicted. And it does not have to be this way. Join us as we explore the reason to be in business in the first place, the role of transferable value when you eventually exit your business (and you will!), and how strategic delegation can help you achieve that. Start by acknowledging what’s on your plate, know what matters to prevent the fires that keep so many so busy, and understand the importance of delegating to both humans and what we call the ‘other-than-humans’. We even introduce the concept of “Delegating UP” vs “Delegating DOWN”. This is about you and importantly for you the overwhelmed!
