Short YouTube talk by Bill Gallagher about workplace culture: leaders should learn what excites employees and align roles with their strengths so staff enjoy most of their work. The speaker warns that spending most time on disliked tasks (for staff or CEOs/founders) leads to burnout, errors, and stalled growth; recommends delegation or outsourcing and self-awareness about strengths.
One of my things to talk about with Curious culture is getting to know your staff and what makes them excited about coming to work, what they enjoy doing. If we have a staff that enjoys 90% of what they do and 10% they tolerate they're going to be a lot more successful, happier or less mistakes than doing the reverse. Same with CEOs and founders right? They get stuck doing 90% of what they don't like doing because they won't outsource that or they won't bring someone in for that. That's when you get burnout, that's when you get errors. That's where you get lack of growth because they just lose the passion. You know let the CEOs and founders need a need to follow the same advice of realizing who they are, being self aware about that where their strengths and weaknesses are and play to your strengths and stop trying to make up for your for your lack of skills by doing more of it.
