delegation

A guide to the best B2B podcast coverage of delegation - the shows and 34 episodes that go deepest, ranked by substance, not downloads.

Delegation is a critical skill for agency owners and firm leaders looking to scale without burning out. These episodes cover the full delegation journey - from determining what help you actually need (with Bernadette Harris on law firm hiring) and breaking through the guilt that stops high-performing leaders from letting go, to building accountability systems that let your team succeed independently and finding your zone of genius by getting out of your own way.
