Hello and welcome to Episode 271 of the People Powered Business Podcast!

Have you ever felt like your team is… almost great?

You’ve hired well, you’ve delegated, yet you’re still stuck in the weeds.

It’s not that they don’t care — but you’re still the one they lean on for every answer, decision, direction.

So if you’ve built a capable team… what’s missing?

Today we are unpacking The 3 Things Your Team Needs From You — but Won’t Ask For

The first is Clarity

Not just what to do, but why, when, and how success will be measured. Without this, they hesitate, double-check, or avoid taking initiative.

The Second is Structure (and rhythm)

Teams thrive on predictable systems — not daily chaos. When you lead “on the fly,” your team feels just as disorganised as you do.

The Third is Boundaries

The team need you to say no, make decisions, and draw lines — not always please, fix, or say yes. Your people want to grow — but can’t if you’re always swooping in.

This isn’t about being tougher or working harder. It’s about having a leadership rhythm your team can rely on — so you’re not at the centre of every fire. What your team needs isn’t more of you — it’s the right version of you, showing up with clarity and structure.
