REVERB 31: Why Great Leaders Stop Trying to Do It All
In last week’s episode, Andy sat down with his Executive Assistant of nearly 30 years, Diane Grant, to talk about one of the most overlooked leadership advantages: a strong leader–assistant partnership.
In this REVERB episode, Andy and Suzy unpack what it takes to make that partnership work well. They discuss how trust multiplies leadership capacity, why many leaders struggle to release decision-making to their assistants, and why saying “you decide” may be one of the most important leadership moves you can make.
If you want to delegate more effectively, build trust with your team, and create a no-surprises leadership environment, this conversation will help you lead with greater clarity and confidence.
