Business Delegation Isn’t About Letting Go. It’s About Where Pressure Lives

Описание: Delegation is often talked about as a time management skill. Hand more tasks over. Get out of the weeds. Stop being the bottleneck.

But in my experience, delegation fails for a different reason.

You can delegate the work and still carry the pressure.

In this video, I explain why delegation isn’t really about letting go of tasks, it’s about deciding where pressure is allowed to live. Drawing on my own experience of building and running a hospitality business, I unpack why capable leaders often delegate on paper but still feel mentally on call, emotionally responsible, and unable to switch off.

We explore how identity, responsibility, and pressure quietly fuse together, why delegation without boundaries doesn’t bring relief, and what actually needs to move for delegation to work at a deeper level.

This isn’t a how-to video or a productivity lesson. It’s a reframing of delegation for leaders who already know the basics but want to lead longer without carrying everything themselves.

If delegation hasn’t given you the relief you expected, this conversation will likely resonate.
