What to do When the Bottleneck to Your Team's Growth is You with Cara Skowronski
What if the bottleneck isn't your people, your process, or your plan? You've built a great team. You've got the strategy. And somehow, things still aren't moving the way they should. In this episode of the Small Brave Moves Podcast, Nicole Bianchi sits down with Cara Skowronski — professional EOS implementer and former CEO and COO — for an honest conversation about the leadership blind spot most executives never see coming: themselves. Their conversation goes deep on the inner battles that quietly keep leaders stuck: the need for external approval, the fear of trusting your team, and the moment you realize the biggest bottleneck in your organization is you. Cara shares the pivotal moment from when she attended Nicole's Brave LeadHERship Retreat that changed how she shows up in business and in life. You'll leave this episode knowing how to: 1. Recognize where control is quietly becoming the ceiling on your team's growth — and what to do about it 2. Understand the difference between honesty and openness, and why openness is the harder, more critical leadership skill most leaders never fully develop 3. Take one Small Brave Move toward the thing you've been most afraid to let go of — because that's exactly where your team's breakthrough is waiting The biggest unlock for your team's performance isn't a new strategy or a better process. It's you deciding to lead differently. Let Nicole know you're interested in attending a future Brave LeadHERship Retreat👇 Join the waitlist (https://forms.zohopublic.com/nicolebi...)
