We chat about how:


Business leaders and owners are pulled in every direction, how they need to continue to grow as individuals - sorry but we don't actually know everything!
Growth means change - if you don't grow, then your business is dying as your competitors will be changing.
Remove yourself from jobs that others can do - your job is to make them (employees) better!
Don't aim for perfection right away - aim for good enough - make those mistakes, celebrate the failures and LEARN from them
