150. The Framework Leaders Use to Grow Without Burning Out
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, we talk about how to use the DRIVE framework to support leadership-level growth you can manage, duplicate, and build on without overwhelm or burnout.
This episode is for direct sellers who are building or leading teams and want to develop the skills, judgment, and capacity required to hold their title and continue to grow.
In this episode, you’ll hear about:
- Why the DRIVE framework is about capacity, not speed
- The two phases of every goal: the becoming phase and the being phase
- Why most leaders prepare for the result but not the responsibility
- How leadership skills are built while you’re growing, not after you promote
- Why deadlines and urgency often undermine sustainable leadership
- The difference between fear and misalignment during growth
- How identity and energy shape results long before the title
- Why decision-making standards matter more than motivation
The Five Foundations of the Becoming Phase
During the becoming phase, leadership capacity is built intentionally through a few non-negotiables:
- A steady stream of new customers
- A duplicatable customer care system
- A structured recruiting process
- An onboarding system that builds skill, not dependence
- Decision-making standards that manage energy during growth
This is the foundation that you’ll need throughout your business. Your title is only as strong as the foundation you build it on.
If you’re working toward leadership or trying to stabilize at your current title, Elevate will support you through that process.
Elevate is designed for aspiring leaders and leaders who want to build their foundation so that they can scale.
