How to scale yourself in one really hard step
Scaling comes down to this - teaching others how to make decisions so you don’t have to be there to make them.
That’s it.
The way I think about "empowering": empowering is giving someone the authority to make a decision. Authority gives you the "right" to make a decision but it doesn't mean that the right decision will be made.
Scaling yourself as a design leader is to teach your team to critical decision making skills, so when they have the authority they decide based on debate not emotion.
