- I stole this idea and now use it with every single employee. It’s the best illustration I’ve seen of teaching someone to be high agency. It says there are 5 levels of work: Level 1: “There is a problem.” Level 2: “There is a problem, and I’ve found some causes.” Level 3: “Here’s the problem, here are some possible causes, and here are some possible solutions.” Level 4: “Here’s the problem, here’s what I think caused it, here are some possible solutions, and here’s the one I think we should pick.” Level 5: “I identified a problem, figured out what caused it, researched how to fix it, and I fixed it. Just wanted to keep you in the loop.” Using this framework, here’s what I say to every new employee… You will live at Level 4 from Day 1 and as we build trust you will rise to Level 5. Being high agency doesn’t just mean tackling problems in this way. It means your entire way of working should be oriented to being a Level 4+ employee. Plz feel free to steal it as well. And ty @stephsmithio for the framework!
- I use a killer tool to help me create 1,000+ posts per year, while being a full-time founder. Here's the tool (and my process): Step 1: Have youdistro[.]co interview me about media, AI, entrepreneurship, fatherhood (any topics i'm passionate about/an expert on) for 10 minutes every single morning. Step 2: I create 3-4 text posts either through Distro or Claude. I schedule those out on X and Linkedin. Step 3: I download the video interview from Distro & feed it into OpusClip to create 3-4 SFV clips. I schedule those out on IG, TT, YT. Step 4: I repeat the process each day & can put out thousands of high quality pieces of content per year on the internet. P.S. I am a co-founder/advisor to @youdistro, but the reason I got involved is because I so badly wished I had this tool to turn me into a content machine earlier in my career
