"You're Focusing on the Wrong Things?"

Writer's picture: Eric ThorsenEric Thorsen


If you’re leading your company without a scorecard for your own role, you’re likely focusing on the wrong things.


Let me tell you about my first experience creating a role-based scorecard for myself:


→ It felt strange to share it with my executive team.


→ It exposed tasks that were holding me back from strategy and growth.


→ It showed me where I was still in the weeds.


I enjoyed the things I was working on…but they were not aligned with my role as the CEO of the company


→ This needed to change


→ My exec-team helped me get there.



…but I was initially resistant…


Building and sharing my scorecard meant holding myself accountable in new ways. 


👉 Tasks I thought were essential turned out to be distractions. 


👉 Delegating some of these tasks felt vulnerable at first. 


But as I handed over responsibilities, my team stepped up and exceeded expectations.


The transformation took some time but the payoff was significant.


→ My focus shifted from the day-to-day grind to long-term vision.


→ Accountability fostered innovation and team ownership.


→ Results flowed faster, with everyone contributing at a higher level.


Today, I coach other founders through this process, and the impact on growth and alignment is huge. 


A scorecard for your own role is more than a checklist; 


👉 it’s a framework for freedom.


If you’re leading a team but still mired in the day-to-day;

👉 Are you ready to experience the relief of working on the right things? 

I’ve helped other founders move through this same shift, and as a longtime founder and CEO, I’ve seen how freeing it can be to let go and refocus on what matters.
