Overcoming Decision Bottlenecks: Empowering Growth Through Delegation | Growth by Design

Welcome back to Growth by Design, brought to you by RX2 Solutions, because growth does not happen by accident, it happens by design. In this episode, Rob Graham and Ross Rosner take on a challenge many growing businesses face, decision bottlenecks that slow progress when everything funnels back to the owner.

The conversation explores why delegation is often harder than it sounds and why holding onto every decision limits scale. Rob Graham and Ross Rosner break down what effective delegation really looks like, how to give teams the confidence to make decisions, and how to clearly define what good judgment means inside an organization. The episode also highlights the role of well-built Standard Operating Procedures in creating consistency, speeding up decisions, and reducing unnecessary chaos, with specific insight into life sciences environments where precision matters.

This discussion offers practical guidance for leaders who want to empower their teams, move faster, and build a business that can grow without constant bottlenecks.
