Delegation skills

“No person will make a great business who wants to do it all himself or get all the credit.”

Good delegation saves you time, develops your people, prepares a successor and motivates. Poor delegation will cause you frustration, demotivate and confuse the other person, and fail to achieve the task or purpose itself.  Effective delegation is a critical survival skill for managers and supervisors. Delegation can also be a clear sign that you respect your subordinates’ abilities and that you trust their discretion.  Employees who feel that they are trusted and respected tend to have a higher level of commitment to their work, their organisation, and especially to their manager.
