Send us Fan Mail If your team can't move without you, it's not a people problem—it's a systems problem. In this solo episode, Kristen Poborsky breaks down the real reason founders stay stuck in the weeds even after they've delegated tasks, recorded Looms, and written SOPs.

Send us Fan Mail What if your team isn't the problem — and neither are your SOPs? If you've recorded the Looms, written the documentation, and your team is still waiting on you for every decision, approval, and piece of copy, the issue isn't effort.
