Managers are often afraid to delegate because they haven't mastered the skill. Yet there are so many benefits to delegation. It enables managers to manage their time more effectively, while at the same time fostering the development and motivation of their team members. However, when a manager delegates a task or mandate to an employee, in addition to remaining responsible for the result, he or she must also provide effective coaching to ensure success and the achievement of objectives! Achieve concrete, measurable results while boosting everyone's motivation, including your own!
