About this listen

"Delegation Matrix & The Conversation Nobody Wants To Have"

Friday, 6 PM. The report you delegated isn't done. So you go home and finish it yourself at 10 PM. Because you can't let it fail.

Your team member learns: "My boss will save me." You learn: "I can't trust them."

Everyone talks about delegation frameworks. But the framework isn't your problem. Your problem is the rescue cycle—and the conversation you're avoiding when someone doesn't deliver.

In this episode: the delegation matrix that works, plus the exact conversation to have the first time it happens, so it doesn't become a pattern.

What you'll learn:

  • Why the delegation matrix isn't solving your problem
  • What to say immediately when someone misses a deadline
  • How to stop rescuing without letting work fail
  • The Wednesday warning rule
  • When to remove autonomy and rebuild trust

This is What No One Tells You - honest conversations about managing people.
