Focus on what you want.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">10 Ways to Deal with Bottlenecks<\/h2>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#1. Acknowledge their power.\u00a0<\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One person has the power to derail a team.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#2. \u201cShould\u201d doesn\u2019t change things.<\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bottlenecks choke you. Eventually, you resort to \u201cshoulds\u201d.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>They should care.<\/li>\n<li>Higher-ups should do something.<\/li>\n<li>Things should be better.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My coach taught me, \u201cDon\u2019t should on yourself or others.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#3. Don\u2019t expect higher-ups to intervene.<\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When a bottleneck has been around for a long time, they ain\u2019t going anywhere.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#4. Get on their team as much as possible.<\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Resistance invites defiance.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#5. Clarify the \u201cgood\u201d you desire.<\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Is it really good for your organization and customers? Are you being selfish?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Define what will be better if you push through.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#6. Expand perspective.<\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Perhaps you\u2019ve missed something. Inform yourself. What\u2019s the motivation for staying the same? Speak to motivation before addressing behaviors.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#7. Go around.<\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Take small actions without them or suggest a pilot program.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ensure your value outweighs any friction you cause.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#8. Stay humble.<\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When it\u2019s a higher-up, ask, \u201cWhat am I missing?\u201d Stay open. You could be wrong.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#9. Always act with kindness.<\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ruminating pollutes you.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Don\u2019t allow frustration to control your tone.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#10. Tell the truth.<\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you are punished for working to make things better, so be it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One person can make things worse; one person can make them\u00a0better.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What warnings or suggestions can you offer someone who is dealing with a bottleneck?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/leadershipfreak.blog\/2011\/03\/01\/bottlenecks-busters\/\">Bottleneck busters \u2013 Leadership Freak<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/daisyaugerdominguez\/2026\/04\/13\/the-leadership-bottleneck-why-youre-slowing-your-team-down\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Leadership Bottleneck: Why You\u2019re Slowing Your Team Down<\/a> Forbes<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/leadershipfreak.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/subscribe-banner.jpg?ssl=1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"620\" height=\"293\" data-attachment-id=\"82271\" src=\"https:\/\/leadershipfreak.blog\/2025\/11\/20\/3-quiet-weeks\/subscribe-banner\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/leadershipfreak.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/subscribe-banner.jpg?fit=1002%2C474&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1002,474\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"subscribe banner\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/leadershipfreak.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/subscribe-banner.jpg?fit=620%2C293&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-82271\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/leadershipfreak.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/subscribe-banner.jpg?w=1002&amp;ssl=1 1002w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/leadershipfreak.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/subscribe-banner.jpg?resize=300%2C142&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/leadershipfreak.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/subscribe-banner.jpg?resize=768%2C363&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/leadershipfreak.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/subscribe-banner.jpg?resize=290%2C137&amp;ssl=1 290w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/leadershipfreak.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/subscribe-banner.jpg?resize=960%2C454&amp;ssl=1 960w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<!-- .post-foot --><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<!-- #nav-below --><\/p><\/div>\n<p><!-- .post-content -->\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Breaking Bottlenecks Bottlenecks protect the status quo.
