A brief conversational excerpt from a YouTube video where two speakers discuss the shift from doing individual technical work (e.g., shooting) to leading a team. They highlight new challenges: developing people-leadership skills, designing processes for productions, aligning and engaging team members around a shared company vision, and accepting that one person cannot do all the work for a growing business.

And so, like, it's putting more pressure on my, my leadership skills that I'm grateful to be able to develop. But those are like new problems that we're now having to tackle as we, as we lead people. Instead of, instead of just focusing on the shoot or whatever. Now it's like, okay, well, what are the processes behind the shoot and how do we get people engaged and, and thinking aligned and have a shared vision for the direction of the company as a group?

Leadership skills, obviously, to bring those people, to bring those people together and have them do it for you. Because you physically can't do all the work that, you know, a million dollar a year business requires. Which is the interesting part. And it's really, there's a lot of. And we'll talk about that obviously offline a little bit more on like, different, different ways to lead and different ways to get people to do things.
