A difficult project begins to slip, and everyone knows who will be asked to save it. She understands the history, answers quickly and can turn confusion into a workable next step. The rescue succeeds, so the organisation repeats it. Competence quietly becomes a permanent emergency assignment. Your strongest person should not be the system that compensates for every weak process. Each rescue takes time from the work only she can grow, while everyone else loses the chance to build judgement. Praise without redesign can become another way of spending a reliable person down. After the immediate problem is stable, look at why it needed her. Clarify ownership, teach the decisions she made and remove the obstacles that required exceptional effort. Give others room to practise before the next crisis arrives. Talent deserves meaningful challenges, not an endless queue of preventable emergencies. A good leader is grateful for the person who can carry the team through a hard moment. A better system makes sure she does not have to live there.
