Leila Hormozi在本次播客中分享了她从运营者转型为领导者，并成功扩展业务的经验。她强调，关注员工和人际交往技能是业务增长的关键。早期，她通过专注于员工和人际技能，而非直接干预业务运营，实现了Gym Watch公司的快速发展。她指出，成为更好的领导者，关键在于提升整体领导能力，而非仅仅提升特定职能技能。她以财务部门为例，说明CFO和Controller的主要区别在于领导能力，而非财务知识。她还谈到，过去成功的经验并不一定适用于未来的发展，需要学习新的技能。在快速发展的公司中晋升员工时，需要考虑未来12个月的角色需求，并评估员工是否具备匹配的技能。她建议制定职业发展规划，明确未来12个月需要掌握的技能，并提供相应的培训和资源。如果员工无法胜任当前角色，可以考虑为其配备导师或调整其角色，而非直接辞退。她强调与团队成员坦诚沟通，明确他们的职业发展规划和技能差距的重要性。她还指出，快速发展的团队中，一些成员会倾向于掩盖自身的不足，这不利于团队发展。优秀的领导者勇于承担责任，并给予团队成员充分的肯定。她认为掩盖不足的行为源于恐惧，而坦诚面对不足并寻求帮助才是更好的选择。她分享了她犯错的经历，并强调承认错误、寻求反馈的重要性。她还谈到，快速发展的团队中，领导者容易陷入处理他人工作事务的困境。扩展部门或业务的关键在于释放领导者的工作时间，专注于业务增长。她认为公司或部门的增长最终取决于领导者，领导者需要专注于提升自身能力并释放时间，而不是处理日常事务。最后，她强调领导者需要保护好自己的时间，专注于那些能促进业务增长的工作，并将其他事务外包。
