If execution depends on a leader's presence, leadership has not scaled.
This final session reframes leadership success. It's not about influence or effort. It's about what holds when the leader steps away.

What This Session Is
Most leaders become the system without realizing it: approvals, escalations, rescue, decision bottlenecks. This session helps leaders see exactly where they're still required - and how to design systems that operate without them.

You Will Leave Able To
- Identify where execution still depends on you
- Remove yourself as the bottleneck without lowering standards
- Keep ownership and decisions local
- Start turning leadership from personality into infrastructure
Built on the Guide Don't Drive™ framework and reinforced through Monday Morning Implementation™.
