Eliminating Single Points of Failure | Things Leaders Do Podcast

Episode Description (Show Notes):

What happens if the one thing holding your organization together suddenly falls apart?

In today's episode of Things Leaders Do, Colby Morris breaks down the critical leadership concept of eliminating single points of failure—before they cripple your business.

You will hear a real-world story from Colby’s time leading hospital operations, where an entire system was unknowingly dependent on a single employee. Plus, we explore how many founders unknowingly become their own organization’s biggest risk—and how to fix it.

In this episode, you will learn:

Why inspecting what is working is just as important as fixing what is broken
How Andy Stanley’s leadership principle applies to scaling resilient teams
The difference between managers who react and leaders who stress-test systems early
Why burnout is your biggest hidden threat—and how to build sustainable, resilient teams
How to involve your team in uncovering operational risks before they explode

Whether you are a CEO, a founder, or a team leader, you will walk away with actionable strategies to protect your organization from invisible risks—and build something that can truly scale.

If you want a resilient business, it starts today—with the right questions, the right systems, and the right leadership moves.
