Why do people value things more when they’ve built them themselves — even if they’re wobbly and maybe missing a screw? In this episode, Jeff Matlow unpacks the IKEA Effect and what it reveals about motivation, ownership, and great leadership.

In this particular episode, you’ll learn some important things like:
🔹 Why involving your employees creates emotional investment that leads to better results
🔹 How the IKEA Effect helps you delegate better and empower more
🔹 What happens when leaders do too much for their people

Leadership isn’t about doing everything — it’s about letting others build with you. Time to build the IKEA Effect into your leadership arsenal.
