Delegation is key to success for every leader. As our job becomes more strategic in nature, it may be hard to uncouple from the yearning to do the work ourselves. Without building capacity and confidence within our team to get things done, we run the risk of running on a hamster wheel.
What do you need to delegate right now? What tasks really should not be completed by you anymore?
Delegation is a key struggle area for many leaders. A quick reminder of the 4 D framework to time management we explored several months ago - consider the things you need to DO, DUMP, DELEGATE, and DEFER.
Once you have decided which you need to delegate, consider the Five Ws and the How.
If delegation has not been a strong point for you, what are the specific steps you can take to become more effective with delegation?
Have a great weekend,
