If your business still depends on you for everything… you don’t have a capacity problem. You have a structure problem.

In this episode of The 60 Second Podcast, Gavin Brauer breaks down the first move every founder should make to get out of the day-to-day: build an accountability chart.

It sounds simple. But done right, it forces you to answer the hardest questions in your business:

Who actually owns what?
Where are the gaps?
What does “great” look like in every role?

Gavin shares how defining just five core responsibilities per role can unlock clarity, expose bottlenecks, and help you build a team that can run the business without you.

Because scaling isn’t about doing more.
It’s about getting the right people in the right seats.

[00:00:00] Matt McCoy:
If a founder feels like everything still depends on them, what's the first move they should make this week?

[00:00:05] Gavin Brauer:
So for me, it always starts with what we in EOS call the accountability chart, which is an org chart on steroids. And it's about getting crystal clarity on who does what.

What is the right structure for your organization?

And we get there by understanding what are the seats that we need for sales and marketing? What do we need for operations? What do we need for finance?

From there, it's about getting crystal clear: what are the five things that every single seat in the organization has to do incredibly well in order to achieve your vision?

So what are people doing day in, day out? Five things.

The interesting thing about starting with the accountability chart and the right structure is it really forces you to answer some very deep strategic questions that you likely wouldn't actually get to if you started just thinking about strategy.

So one is you're going to figure out who's doing what, what are the gaps in your organization, but it's also going to help you answer some really good strategic questions.

So start with who does what and figure out the right structure.

Then you got to get the right people in those seats.
