Your Team Isn’t the Problem. Your Authority Is.

🎙️ Why won’t your law firm team make decisions without you? In this episode of the Law Firm Marketing Minute, Tyson Mutrux joins Danny Decker to talk about one of the biggest reasons law firm owners become the bottleneck in their own business: they delegate tasks, but not real authority. Tyson explains how clear decision-making criteria, authority bands, and trust can help solo and small law firms reduce delays, empower their team, and create better law firm operations in 2026. If every decision still ends up on your desk, this episode will help you understand why your team may not be the problem. The real issue may be the authority they have been given.

📌 Key Takeaways:

• Delegation only works when your team has clear decision-making authority.
• Create criteria your team can follow instead of making every decision yourself.
• If a team member acts within your criteria, improve the criteria instead of second-guessing them.
