Ever wonder who's really to blame when things go wrong in business? On this episode, we tackle the classic entrepreneurial dilemma: is it a leadership failure or a team failure? We break down the real-life, expensive lessons we've learned, from wasting time on unproven ideas to making costly moves without having the funds secured.
I share a story about a failed venture, where I started hiring a team before a promised million-dollar investment was actually in the bank. The result? A tanked burn rate and the embarrassment of having to let people go just two months after recruiting them. We dig deep into why mistakes are not just a part of the grind, but a necessary form of continuing education that helps you grow and evolve. We also explore the idea that as a leader, you are always the one responsible for the success or failure of your team. This is a must-watch for anyone building a business or leading a team.
