318: Stop Doing It All Alone

PMO Strategies

Welcome to the PMO Strategies Podcast + Blog, where PMO leaders become IMPACT Drivers!

PMI Talent Triangle: Power Skills

You don’t prove your leadership by taking on everything yourself. You prove it by creating space, enabling others, and delivering results that last.

In this episode, I’m calling out the hidden cost of wearing “busy” like a badge—and why so many high-performing leaders quietly hold themselves back by refusing to ask for help.

We’ll talk about how the lone hero mindset sabotages your growth, what real executive-level leadership looks like, and how to shift from doing the work…to leading the work.

If you’ve been telling yourself “I’ve got it,” when what you really need is a team beside you—this conversation is for you.

What You'll Learn:

• Why doing it all yourself isn’t sustainable—or strategic
• How the lone hero mindset blocks your growth
• A real-world story of shared ownership that changed everything
• What top executives understand about asking for help
• How to build trust, increase clarity, and lead through others

👉 Press play to learn how to stop doing it all alone—and start leading like an executive.
