The process of transitioning from a solopreneur to a CEO isn’t instant and requires a mind shift from doing to being. To become the CEO that your business needs to grow, you’ll have to fully step into that identity, loosen your hold on the day-to-day operations, and trust your team to do their best work. Is this a journey you’re prepared to undertake?
A solopreneur is responsible for the main deliverables of all aspects of the business even when you have a V.A., while the CEO is in charge of the vision and is responsible for creating the strategy.
