Episode 23 | Steps To Creating Momentum In Your Business | The Joe Sova Business Show

In this episode, I discuss the importance of leading with leverage in entrepreneurship rather than just effort. Leading with effort can result in chaos, limited options, and income, whereas leading with leverage can open up possibilities, automate tasks, and build a team around you. 

Leading with leverage involves a shift in mindset, and it is not just about delegating tasks but also trusting others to do the job. By leading with leverage, entrepreneurs can scale their businesses and achieve greater success

Key Points From The Episode:

• Leading with effort can limit your income, impact, and growth. When you only focus on putting in hard work and effort, things can feel out of control and like you're on a speeding train heading for a cliff. Instead, it's essential to shift your mindset to leading with leverage.
• Leading with leverage means automating certain aspects of your business and building a team around you that you can trust to delegate tasks to. It's about letting go of the idea that things must be done your way and trusting others to do the job. When you lead with leverage, your business can scale and achieve more.
• Leveraging is about putting in less effort for more results. Just like using a lever on a rock, you can move things further with less force, and the same is true in your business. When you shift your mindset to leading with leverage, you can achieve incredible results that might have seemed impossible before.

In this episode, we’re talking about leadership and how you can use it to become a boss-level entrepreneur.

There's a myth out there that leading means micromanaging every single thing your team does. But that’s actually not true. 

Real leadership is about lifting others up, being a positive influence, sparking energy and excitement, and giving everyone the chance to be their absolute best. That's the good stuff!

And when your team shows up to work, don't try to box them in. Let them spread their wings and do their thing. Give them the freedom to use their own unique talents and skills to make your business even better. Because when you empower others, it's game-changing.

Here are the key takeaways from this episode:

• Leading isn't just about being a control freak.
• It's about bringing out the best in your team.
• Give your crew the room to shine and let their gifts fly.
