Growing More by Letting Go

Josh Feinberg is the founder of Everlasting Capital, a brokerage that was featured on the Inc. 5000 list in 2017 for its exponential growth. Feinberg will also be be speaking at this this year’s Broker Fair on May 6. He recently wrote an article where he discussed the value, for a boss, of letting go and delegating tasks to employees. Below are some of his words of wisdom on the topic:

“When I try to wear all hats, it becomes overwhelming and not efficient.”

“The past 2 years we have been focusing on the growth [of the company] by giving up control and giving the employees a chance to start their ‘own’ company within ours.”

“Most young executives will try to take on too much because they are good at everything. However, a lot of times that is hurting more than helping. Being able to delegate jobs to rising employees will not only help you scale, it will give your employees a sense of security and close to the same passion as you do for your own business.”

“You need your team to work besides you and not behind you. We all have fear, and insecurities, but put that aside so you can let your company scale and grow the way it should.”
