Delegating Effectively

Recommended for:

Newly promoted managers who wish to develop themselves and their teams through delegation; managers whose workload prevents them from devoting time to strategic work; managers who are unsatisfied with the results of their current delegation efforts; and managers who wish to use delegation to develop specific capabilities in their teams.

Course overview:

More time to think, greater productivity, a more motivated team, time to develop yourself and raise your game. These are just some of the benefits of delegation. Managers who don’t delegate or do it badly end up being burnt out, missing out on opportunities or de-motivating the team. This 1-day course is designed to give you the confidence and skills you need to delegate tasks and responsibilities productively and constructively.

Course benefits:

By the end of the course you will be able to:

  • select the right tasks for delegation
  • plan your delegation to minimise the risks
  • adapt your delegation plan to suit the development level of the person to whom you are delegating
  • brief tasks with clarity and precision
  • monitor progress
  • release your own time for more strategic work and personal development
  • use delegation to trigger motivation and commitment
  • use delegation to raise standards in your team.
