The Classic Problem As An Entrepreneur Is That They Have A Hard Time Delegating. But That's Really Crazy. Recruiting Other Executives Is Critical, So Is Dealing With Customers And Dealing With Regulators. Those Are Functions That Only The Top Founders Can Do.

The Way You Delegate Is That First You Have To Hire People That You Really Have Confidence In. You Won't Truly Let Those People Feel A Sense Of Autonomy If You Don't Have Confidence In Them.
