“It's only when we learn to also let go and let other people make suggestions that they can grow and they can become maybe even entrepreneurs of the future.” —Roland Siebelink
Navigating the growth of a business while maintaining control and vision requires a delicate balance of delegation and oversight. The key is to find that sweet spot where you can trust your team members to handle the day-to-day stuff while still keeping your finger on the pulse. By empowering your teams, you not only reap the rewards of their collective brilliance but also create a workplace where individuals feel valued and inspired to excel. After all, business success isn't just about numbers— it's about the people who make it happen.
