There is an old maximum of leadership that is:
“If you want something done give it to your busiest person”

This is why I turned down promotions.

The next stage in personal growth is to help others grow more competent and learn to delegate. That means you can then focus on the stuff only you can do.
At least that's what I'm learning.

That requires people who are willing/able to learn. I have put together so many documents detailing a procedure with clear instructions and screenshots and still have coworkers who can't figure it out. Hell, the number of people who can't run a goddamned script to do it for them ( also with instructions and pictures!!) is also too goddamned high!

Been there too. The advantage of writing the document though is that it means you can point people to it at least.

In my neighborhood, I’m the backup for the backup DIY guy, but people are starting to see where I specialize in, so eventually I will start getting jobs that the others can’t do as well. Soon I will be the specialist for certain things.

Yes but, I just found out that I'm so competent and trustworthy that since management needs to shuffle the supervisors around and the only way to make it work is to leave me in charge of the team for several hours without a supervisor. So now I'm looking at "we'd love to promote you but you're just to valuable in your current role". It a damned of you do, damned if you don't situation.

You may be able to leverage that for benefits like WFH days or higher raises than rest of team.
