What high-leverage CEOs remove first?
They don’t start by adding tools.
Or hiring aggressively.
Or setting bigger goals.
They start by removing.
Unnecessary decisions.
Repeated explanations.
Low-value tasks.
Unclear ownership.
Removal creates speed.
Removal creates clarity.
Removal creates space for leadership.
Only then does adding support actually work.
If you want the next phase of growth to feel clean…,
Don’t ask what you should add.
Ask what should never reach you again.
That question alone changes everything.
