Effective Delegation and Empowerment
"Never tell people how to do things. Tell them what to do and they will surprise you with their ingenuity."
General George Smith Patton, Jr.
Are you an effective delegator? Or perhaps you assume:
- “No-one can do it as thoroughly or efficiently as me.”
- “I have so many competing priorities but I can’t trust someone else to deliver on them?”
- “By the time I have explained it to someone else I am better off doing it myself.”
Being effective means organising and executing around priorities. Even with smartest diary management, we can’t do everything ourselves. Successful businesses though, recognise the strength in achieving their goals through other people; and that means delegation.

“Just imagine what we could achieve if we didn’t care who got the credit?”
Pres. Harry S Truman
