So often business owners will hire someone who seems like a rockstar.
Months or years later, they agonize over their decision, thinking this was the wrong person.
Then they claim "good help is hard to find"

It's a bullshit problem.

The problem usually isn't that it was a bad hire (although sometimes it is).
More often it's the culture and how they are led and managed.
Culture starts at the top.

Just like with your kids, the behaviors witnessed by your team get replicated downstream throughout the organization.

Passing the buck, blaming others, micro-managing and not taking responsibility -
These are all side effects of business owners who are insecure, emotionally unaware and trying desperately to control all the wrong things.

I've been there. I get it. And yea, it sucks to be that guy.
It took me years to realize this.

These are the 3 Mindsets you need to adopt right now

1. Stop giving answers.
Let the people who own the responsibility provide the answers. Your job is to guide and share your experience and skills were applicable.

2. Own your shit
You're not perfect, don't pretend to be. Acknowledge when you screw up, apologize and be willing to own up to it. Others will follow suit. More importantly, embrace being challenged in public and handle it with grace.

3. Trust or Replace
If you won't trust someone to do a great job. Either give them another job you'll trust them to do or replace them with someone who you will trust.
