You can outsource execution—but not responsibility. In this episode, Mikel challenges leaders to protect the vision and develop true ownership in their teams.
Delegation without leadership isn’t empowerment—it’s abandonment. In this leadership-focused episode, Mikel explains why the vision God gave you is still yours to steward, no matter how skilled your team is. Sharing lessons from his own agency-building journey, he exposes the trap of turning team members into taskmasters instead of owners. With Galatians 6:5 as the foundation, he offers practical steps to help leaders communicate the “why,” set the standard, and cultivate responsibility. Because when you own the outcome, your team will own the task.

You can delegate a task, but you can’t delegate ownership. In this episode, Mikel challenges leaders to remember that if God gave them the vision, it’s still their responsibility to protect, guide, and steward it. He shares lessons from his own leadership journey—how rushing to delegate tasks without cultivating ownership led to missed opportunities for growth. Using Galatians 6:5, he encourages leaders to clearly communicate the “why,” set the standard, and train their teams to think, not just do. Because when you own the outcome, your team will own the task.
