Finding your delegation WHY

Sometimes we find it hard to let go of work. Perfectionism, time, trust and even guilt can all get in the way.

Finding your delegation ‘why’ helps unblock these blockers.

Delegation...

🎯 Takes things off your list – and puts it on someone else’s. This is not simply about pushing work downward though. It's also about...

🎯 Teamwork – sharing the load creates a feeling of collaboration; everyone is making a contribution and sharing ownership over the end results.

🎯 Develops people – it provides challenges for your team, encourages them to
improve their skills, and offers opportunities to broaden their experience.

🎯 Builds your pipeline – it ‘trains your replacement’, identifies and develops talent either for your business or maybe elsewhere in the industry.

🎯 Builds trust – it sends a signal that you respect people’s skill and competency, we feel more motivated when we are trusted.

What’s your biggest why?
