As you advance in your career, the ability to delegate becomes more important. By delegating, you will have more time to focus on the work where you can add the most value. You will also provide the space for others to get valuable training and move up in their careers. Take a moment today and assess your effectiveness in delegating.
To start, analyze your current workload. Some of the questions you can ask yourself are:
-
What are you doing today that you can delegate to free up time for yourself?
-
Is there a specific task that only you can do which you are neglecting to do something that another person on the team can do?
-
Can someone do part of the work you are doing more effectively (or efficiently) than you?
