Hey Reader,
Some managers love to complain that their team won’t take initiative. “No one listens. I have to do everything myself. Why don’t they just step up?”
But here’s the uncomfortable truth: You might be the reason your team isn’t stepping up.
When you’re the one solving every problem, answering every question, and making every decision—you’ve trained your team to be dependent on you. And that’s not leadership.
In this week’s episode of Construction Trailblazers, Jesse Hernandez joins me to talk about why most managers unknowingly create the very problems they’re frustrated with—and, more importantly, how to fix it. Jesse is the guy behind Depth Builder, and he doesn’t just talk leadership—he’s lived it, learned from his own mistakes, and figured out what actually works in the real world.
