Another stupid question by your team! Someone else should have dealt with this problem. Wonder what you pay them for?
I don’t know about you but I often feel like this about my team.
I often feel that I’m the only one that can solve problems in my business. I employ people to do certain tasks but I often end up solving the problem and doing some of the task myself – I wonder what I’m paying them for.
But have you ever wondered if the problem is you not them? Are you training them to rely on you rather than take the problem to other people in your team that should be dealing with the problem… I can here you dismissing that thought but let’s explore if further.
When they have a problem you solve it for them – you are training them to get problems solved by you not take it to another person – why? Because when they do you solve it for them. It is easier to bring all their problems to you to be solved than to go to other people who will often take their problem to you anyway.
And the people you have given the task to, when they make a mistake, do you get a little angry, while you might not yell at them but your tone might change and be a bit colder towards them – you are punishing them for thinking for themselves, so they don’t.
The result is to avoid pissing off the boss and waiting for answers they should get you to solve their problems – not the outcome you want, you don’t have time to solve every problem they have – if you did you wouldn’t have employed people to solve these problems for you– you wouldn’t need them.
What if instead, you could train your team to take their problems to the right person and that this “right person” felt empowered to answer questions (and only bring the exceptions to you) using a single simple strategy – The Redirect Staff Management System.

Put simply it will save you time while making you more money!
