What's every top manager's secret to success? In a word: delegate, delegate, delegate. But getting work done through others can often be difficult because it inevitably involves a loss of control. This program outlines a solid process for delegating and gives valuable insight to both new and experienced managers.

Benefits:

• Models effective delegating
• Helps leaders develop staff
• Improves organizational productivity

Effective delegation accomplishes much more than the task at hand. It also builds trust for future delegations, helps employees develop new skills and reduces managerial stress.

This workshop provides a plan for delegation, presented in five steps:

• Analyze the Task: Determine, in detail, what needs to be done to achieve the goal. This includes setting a deadline.
• Choose the Right Delegatee: The right candidate should be highly motivated and possess the needed skills.
• Assign the Task: Give clear instructions on desired outcomes, resources available and follow-up steps.
• Execute the Task: During the task execution, support the delegatee by informing key employees of the delegatee's task and level of authority.
• Conduct Regular Feedback Sessions: Monitor issues so they don't become problems, and give the delegatee opportunities to ask questions.
