The Delegation Trap: It's Not Them, Its You

By Atiba de Souza

Most entrepreneurs build their businesses for freedom, then become the biggest bottleneck in them. You work 60+ hours a week, answer every question, fix every mistake, and wonder why your team "just doesn't think like you." Here's the truth: They don't think like you because you never taught them how. In this bold, story-rich, no-fluff business book, veteran successful entrepreneur Atiba de Souza reveals The C.A.S.E. Method, a proven 4-question framework that helps you transfer your decision-making process, not just tasks. Forget what you've heard about checklists and SOPs.
