There's only so much that you can achieve working on your own, that's why it's important to delegate effectively. To successfully delegate:

  • Think about the skills, experience and competencies within your team, and start matching people to tasks.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!
