The founder’s bottleneck: why it’s not the problem you think

Event hosted by Barclays Eagle Labs

Delegate more and trust your team. You’ve heard the advice, but it hasn’t worked. This session explores what needs to change and why.

Being the person everything runs through is what built your business – your judgement, standards, and way of doing things. That’s why it works, and it’s exactly why it now can’t run without you. Drawing on her work with founders at this exact stage, Anna Lundberg looks beyond the bottleneck at what’s really keeping you there, and why better systems alone won’t solve it.

What you’ll learn:

• Why capable founders stay the bottleneck – the loop you and your team built together, and why hiring well doesn’t break it
• Which decisions genuinely need your inputs, and what it takes to move the rest off your desk
• Why sometimes even the right fix doesn’t hold and you keep getting involved again
• A clearer read on where your business still depends on you, and a first step towards changing that.

This will be followed by a Q&A. If you can’t join live, we’ll send the recording to everyone who registers so you can catch up anytime.

We look forward to welcoming you.
