Not enough hours in the day?
Do you feel stressed and overloaded with work? Do you end up doing everything while your staff are under-worked? Are you the hardest worker? As a manager it's not always easy to "let go" of tasks. But, "If you want something done right, do it yourself," is not a sustainable business model. If so, then you may need to brush up your delegation skills! Even "Super You" needs help and support. There is no shame in asking for assistance. Push aside the pride and show respect for the talent others can bring to the table.
DELEGATION IN MANAGEMENT - A POWERFUL MANAGEMENT SKILL
Delegation in management is a fundamental management skill. Because successful delegation is like a mini promotion. Successful delegation engages employees and motivates staff. This increases employee performance. But when delegation in management is done badly it becomes yet another task that an under-performing employee doesn't want to do.
