This episode of The Art of Entrepreneurship is for founders realizing reinvention means becoming the version of themselves their business needs next.
A few episodes ago, I talked about the long middle of entrepreneurship and how staying in that phase is about more than endurance. It’s about figuring out how to keep growing inside the company you already created. This episode is the other half of that conversation. Because as your business grows, your role has to change with it.
I talk about the difference between proactively reinventing your role and being forced into it because the company has already outgrown how you operate. I also get into what reinvention is and what it isn’t, including why stepping back too fast can create just as many problems as holding on too long. Reinvention doesn’t mean checking out of the business. It means becoming more intentional about where you’re involved, where your team is ready to own more and where your involvement creates the most leverage.
The biggest shift is learning to tell the difference between being needed and being comfortable. If you’re still in every problem, every decision and every client conversation because that’s what feels familiar, your role may already be expired. The goal isn’t to become uninvolved. It’s to become correctly involved.
Tune in if you’re ready to redesign your role so you and your company can keep growing.
