Session 4 Analysis

Leadership coaching · delegation & self-worth

Pre-Session Brief

Maya is working on delegation and the belief that she has to be indispensable. Last session she committed to handing off one project; open by asking how that went. Watch for the “needed vs. valuable” theme; it’s the deeper thread under the time-management surface.

Session Summary

Maya arrived energised by a delegated project that went well, but quickly returned to her habit of over-involvement under pressure. The conversation surfaced a belief that her value comes from being needed. She began to separate “being indispensable” from “being effective,” and identified one concrete task to release this week.

Key Quotes
“I keep saying yes to things I know I should delegate.”
“When I actually let my team own it, they surprise me, but letting go still feels like dropping the ball.”
“I think I confuse being needed with being valuable.”
Decisions & Insights
  • Maya links her self-worth to being indispensable, which drives over-involvement in her team’s work.
  • She delegated one project end-to-end last month and it succeeded: concrete evidence that contradicts her fear.
  • The pattern shows up most under time pressure, when she defaults to “just doing it myself”.
Coach Actions

Coach ReflectionOn your practice · private, never shown to the client

You created real space for Maya to reach the “needed vs. valuable” insight herself, rather than offering it; that’s where the session turned. One opening for next time: when she named the delegated project that worked, you moved on quickly; sitting with that success a little longer could give her a sturdier anchor against the fear.
