Struggling companies often blame each other: founders say employees aren't delivering, employees say founders aren't leading. The real problem is nobody knows what their job actually is, what done looks like, or what matters next. Clear roles and shared definitions of success fix that.
'Cause I've seen these businesses where the business is struggling and it's like you said, the blame game is happening. Yeah. The founders are like, okay, I'm not growing because you're not doing the job or you're not bringing me ideas. And then the employees are like, well, that's not my job, it should be your job. When you go in the middle of a company, how do you start within that?
The biggest thing that's creating the mess is that no one's clear what's expected of everyone. That clarity gives us a foundation to be able to see, were people not good at their jobs or did they just not know Does this person have a bad attitude or do they feel undervalued? We start to get really clear on what are we doing, what does done look like, what should we focus on next. It kind of removes all this guesswork and everybody's operating from the same starting point.
