Episode 9: Dela-train – Multiply Leaders, Multiply Impact

Delegation gives you relief. Dela-train gives you leaders.

In this episode of the Savage Executive Podcast, Steve Smith introduces the concept of Dela-train—delegating in a way that doesn’t just offload tasks, but raises up leaders. You’ll learn how to move beyond short-term relief to long-term multiplication, empowering your team to lead with vision and confidence.

Key takeaways:

• Don’t just delegate chores—delegate outcomes
• Use every handoff as a training opportunity
• Trust your people enough to let them own the result
• Build leaders while you build momentum

If you’re tired of carrying too much on your own, this episode will give you a framework to lighten your load while strengthening your team.
