Why Good Employees Struggle in Leadership Jared Deverna

Why do some of the most capable, dependable people struggle once they step into leadership? In this conversation, we unpack the shift from being a strong doer to becoming an effective leader and why that transition is harder than most people expect. We talk about the tension of wanting to be liked while still making hard decisions, the challenge of handling criticism, and why so many new leaders struggle to delegate. There’s also a real conversation here around what it takes to stop doing everything yourself and start building trust in the people around you. That shift doesn’t happen overnight, but understanding it can change the way you lead.
