Taking Flight: The Entrepreneurs Journey Podcast

Today’s guest has over 20 years of experience in his industry and has been a member of EO Atlanta since 2019. Please welcome to the show Jon Roman, Managing Partner at Transworld Business Advisors of Atlanta.

Learn with Sarah how Jon learned to delegate important tasks in the workplace to make an empowering impact. It’s an inspiring episode you don’t want to miss!

Takeaways:
  • Jon acknowledges the importance of understanding and accepting the limitations of time. This realization is crucial for leaders and communicators as it helps them set realistic expectations and prioritize tasks effectively.
  • It is crucial to trust others and lean on them. Leaders should trust their team members and delegate tasks to them appropriately. Trust fosters collaboration, enables efficient teamwork, and allows individuals to contribute their skills and expertise.
  • A leader of a team should not only trust their team members but also coach and mentor them. By providing guidance and support, leaders can help their team members develop their skills and grow professionally, enhancing the overall performance of the team.
  • No one can handle everything on their own, so team leaders need to delegate responsibilities to capable team members. Delegation not only distributes the workload but also empowers team members to take ownership and contribute to the success of the organization.
Quote of the Show:
  • “We all need people. So we need to learn how to trust them.” - Jon Roman
