Kyle Whissel runs a top real estate team through an hourglass system where his COO filters ideas and decisions so he stays out of the weeds. The structure lets leaders execute while the founder focuses on what matters most.
Chapters
The systems run the company, and the people run the systems. I can help build the systems, but I have to trust the people to run those systems. Like, if I know every little detail about every little thing, then that means I'm not empowering my people to run the company. It's like the shape of an hourglass, right? So, like, I go to this event and I have these 400 ideas, and then I can puke them all over my integrator or coo, and he sifts and sorts through all those ideas, figures out which one makes sense, and now it comes out the other side of the hourglass and it fans out. But now, because he's the one who rolls them out, now the questions come to him, and then he sifts and sorts the opposite direction. And I only get the things that I need to know. So it's this really nice filter in the middle that is insulating me from the team and the team from me. But that's a good thing.
