Are the people you delegate to missing deadlines? Do the people you delegate to fail to take responsibility? Are there no consequences if the task is not completed satisfactorily?
If you have experienced any of these behaviors, sign up for this webinar and learn how to delegate with clarity, give responsibility plus authority and hold people accountable.

Who Should Attend
All managers who want to improve the results of their team.
Why Should You Attend
- Have you ever looked at the final product of a task you had assigned somebody else and realized you didn't get what you wanted, and you would have to redo it? Initially, it may seem like the person who was assigned the task has failed, but that may not be the case. As you learn more about delegation, you may begin to realize it was you as the delegator who failed.
- As a supervisor or manager, you will likely always have responsibility for more things than you can handle by yourself. You cannot adequately plan and perform every task. You must delegate.
- If you feel your employees aren't ready to take on tasks by themselves and you never delegate, they never will be ready. Learn how to assign tasks that train them and help them climb the ladder of competency.
Topic Background
As a manager, you are responsible for envisioning a bigger picture than the employees. You must think critically about problems, opportunities, and innovation and how to progress into the future.
Spending time on the details of projects are seductive time trap. They create the illusion of making progress simply because you look and feel busy.
In order for you to fulfill the higher purposes of management, it is critical that one of the first things you do when looking at your to-do list is look for items that can be delegated.
When responsibilities are properly delegated and accepted by an accountable employee, the employee experiences intangible benefits such as self-esteem, job satisfaction, and the respect and praise of their peers.
The organization moves forward. Delegation is often one of the hardest skills for a manager to master. The good news is this: Exceptional delegation is a skill you can learn, including when, what and to whom to delegate.
