Do you delegate work to the staff you supervise? If not, why not? When you delegate to others it frees you up to focus on the big picture and allows you to make the best use of your time and skills. When you delegate to others it helps them grow, develop and reach their full potential. Delegating can be a win-win situation when done effectively so why not take some time to learn how.
The online information was transcribed from the audio of a Public Service Agency course that is no longer available. The material will give you an overview of how to correctly delegate a task. You will learn:
- how to choose what to delegate
- match employee and delegated assignment
- set the stage for success by developing your staff and freeing up your time for critical tasks
