Still reeling from the Success Ju**ie Summit! I loved teaching this live Masterclass and the feedback has been phenomenal. Not only did we cover three key strategies for effective delegation, we also reviewed the hidden obstacles that get in the way of it actually happening. It's truly one of my favorite classes to teach! If you were there, what was your favorite moment?

P.S. My Social Media Intern captured some ✨fantastic✨ footage - more to come!

"Whatever God shows you in your dreams is actually a precursor to what He has in store for you. Write it down. It's your playbook." - Stephanie J. Luster

"I'm a firm believer in staying in my lane. As an early entrepreneur, you're doing everything yourself. I learned the power of collaboration early on. When you do that well, the money comes." - Whitney Hampton

"Hustlers think about what's immediate. Business owners think about scaling." - Ronald Williams

"Business to me is all about people. I'm not going to mirco-manage anyone. I find really smart people and put them in position. I never cross the finish line by myself. What's the point of that?" - Phillip Lomax Beckham III

I've participated in the Success Ju**ie Summit every year, and there's always new levels. These are the rooms we're supposed to be in - excited to lead day two!

[REMINDER] You promised yourself to stop saying yes to things that you don't need to do this year. Have you kept this promise?

Time and time again, I see leaders refuse to master this skill, and they end up creating a life that they resent. The next time you're asked to add more to your plate, try asking yourself these questions:

❓ Does this really need to happen?
❓ Do I need to make it happen?
❓ What am I sacrificing if I actually say yes?

In 2022, we're guarding our capacity! Struggling with this? DM the word FREEDOM and let's talk it out.

Why am I so passionate about leading healthy teams? Because when you have the right people in place, you can focus on what really matters.

In the early days of entrepreneurship, I sacrificed way too much time working in my business AND I didn't have enough to show for it. I should have spent time with my fam, invested in my health, traveled - all the things that make life worth living.

Once I realized that I was hustling backwards, I was determined to not let anyone else make the same mistakes. Now, I teach my clients how to delegate, how to hold people accountable, and how to lead from a place of strength instead of frustration.

Remember: Burnout is preventable, and you don't have to suffer to succeed. Not sure where to start? Download my Delegation Guide: https://bit.ly/guide2delegate

You set your business goals for 2022. You made a plan. But who is actually going to do the work? What does that look like?

It’s time to assess your team. Ask the following questions and don't shy away from the answers. Need support to get it done? Book a Discovery Call and we'll talk through it: bit.ly/kassarcall

Love this testimonial! Entrepreneurs are told over and over again that hiring is the solution to all of their problems, but no one talks about what managing a team looks like on a day to day basis.

This particular client struggled with resolving conflict and following through on consequences when people didn't perform. After working together, they're able to focus on their role as CEO instead of feeling like a referee, therapist and babysitter day in and day out!

Sound a little too familiar? I want to hear about it - send the word PEACE and we'll get the answers you need.

Hard truth: A lot of "successful" entrepreneurs have found themselves running a business they hate. 🥴

This usually happens for one of two reasons:

1.🚩 They haven't hired a team to delegate busywork. When you're everything to everyone in your business, burnout is inevitable.

2. 🚩They do have a team, but management is exhausting. There is way too much time spent on people problems instead of productivity. Instead of growing the vision, leaders find themselves running an adult daycare.

Both of these scenarios breed resentment and cause visionaries to give up on their dreams too early.

But it doesn't have to be this way. These are the exact challenges I solve with proven strategies at Kassar Consulting.

Ready for a solution? Send a message and let's navigate 2022 from a healthier place.

Giving feedback to your team doesn't have to be stressful or intimidating, and the longer you put it off, the more critical it becomes. The good news? You don't have to do it alone. Let's talk and get these off your plate! bit.ly/kassarcall

✨Speaker Tip✨

Before every speaking engagement, I make sure that each audience member has one of these notecards. A condensed copy of my speaker one-sheet is on the front and space for notes is on the back. Far more useful than a business card, and a surefire way to get them to remember you and the value you provide.

Need an experienced speaker to discuss leadership, entrepreneurship, conflict resolution or team building? I have a limited number of slots still open for Q1 of 2022. Let's chat!
