The Founder’s Bottleneck with Barclays Eagle Labs

Join Barclays Eagle Labs at 12:00pm on Wednesday 16th September for a virtual session exploring why being at the centre of every decision could be the very thing holding your business back. Free for all Huddle members.

As a business grows, founders often find themselves involved in every task, decision and conversation. Finding the balance between staying close to the detail and giving your team space to take ownership is difficult, particularly as demands on your time increase.

The Founder's Bottleneck

This session explores what the bottleneck really looks like, why it happens and how to recognise when your own approach is limiting growth. It offers practical guidance on creating the space, structure and confidence your team needs to thrive.

Attendees will explore ways to:

  • identify where they may be becoming a bottleneck
  • delegate more effectively and build greater ownership within their team
  • create clearer processes and decision-making structures
  • free up time to focus on growth and the bigger picture

It also covers the mindset shift from doing everything yourself to leading through your people, without losing sight of the direction of the business.

Whether you’re building a small team or simply pulled into too many day-to-day decisions, you’ll leave with practical tools to help you step back and create room for growth.
