Ownership: Why Doing Everything Yourself Holds Others Back

Are you helping people succeed? Or teaching them to wait for you to do everything? In Episode 1-9 of The Wisdom Behind the Words, Dee Dee Kiesow and Kursten Faller explore ownership: why people avoid it, how leaders unintentionally take it away, and why accountability alone doesn’t create it. Through real client challenges and a spontaneous fundraising idea that raised $9,000 in three minutes, they discuss how fear stalls action, how rescuing others can limit their growth, and how asking better questions helps people choose to step forward. A practical conversation for leaders, entrepreneurs, and anyone who feels like they’re carrying the whole team.
