How to delegate correctly

The role of an effective manager is to move from doing your job to managing your job.

  • An essential part of managing is to delegate. Delegating helps people grow, eventually increasing their value to your company.
  • Teach, don't tell. Teaching someone how to complete the delegated tasks increases productivity and ensures higher-level results.
  • Trust your team as you decide which tasks to delegate. Empowering others to do their best means reminding them how good they are and how much you believe in them.
  • Give future-focused feedback. When improvements are needed, give solution-based feedback.
