Manage episode 494790183 series 3675335
If you're still the final checkpoint for every deliverable, catching typos, mistakes, and missed deadlines — this episode is your turning point. In today’s conversation, Kelli breaks down how to create feedback loops that empower your team to catch and fix errors before they reach your desk. Because a business that depends on you for quality control isn’t just inefficient — it’s fragile.
Discover the 8-step strategy to build a self-correcting business — one that improves continuously, runs independently, and scales with precision.

Ask Kelli Segment:
"I feel like I’m constantly giving feedback, but nothing ever changes. How do I make feedback actually stick?"
Kelli shares a powerful two-part framework to move feedback from words into systems, and how to reinforce it consistently so your team adopts — and acts on — improvement, every time.
Action Step:
Choose one error you personally caught in the last month. Ask: How can I bake this fix into the system?
Then: document it, assign it, automate it if possible, and teach your team. That’s how you scale with excellence.
