Many of us believe that I can complete the task more effectively that others. Instead of delegating the work to someone who could be an expert we try to have the burden on our shoulders. One can say it’s the symptom of distress or waste of time. Distress because we think that someone could overrule their territory and waste of time as the time you’d spent on delegation could be utilised in finishing it on own.
Wrong! Delegation is as important as empowerment.
In my today’s blog you will find the steps to how to master the art of delegation in these easy 6 steps:
- Choose the right person for the right opportunity or task.
- Consider what tasks someone is willing to take on.
- Assess the strengths of others, know their interests and what their speciality is.
- Empower your team with core skills required for your project.
- Coach for the win. Helping them to think how it can be made better and the best.
- Create a new job description for yourself and start working on it.
Assessing the strengths of others could be identified by assessment tests and goal setting guide. Know what they want. And you are this close to master the art of delegation.
