Delegation is one of the most important leadership skills, yet one of the most misunderstood. Many managers either hold onto work for too long, delegate without providing enough clarity, or unintentionally micromanage their team. The result? Reduced productivity, disengaged employees and managers who become overwhelmed.
This practical and highly interactive 90-minute workshop will help you develop a more strategic approach to delegation. Rather than simply deciding whether to delegate, you'll learn how to delegate at the right level, to the right person, using the right leadership style.
Through real-life business scenarios, practical exercises and facilitated discussion, you'll explore:
1. Why effective delegation is essential for high-performing teams
2. A simple six-step delegation process
3. How to decide what should – and shouldn't – be delegated
4. The six levels of delegation and when to use each one
5. How to match your delegation approach to an individual's capability, confidence and experience
6. How leadership styles influence successful delegation
7. Common delegation mistakes and how to avoid them
8. Practical tools you can immediately apply with your own team
You'll leave with greater confidence to delegate in a way that develops people, increases accountability, frees up your own time and improves business performance.
Ideal for business owners, supervisors, team leaders and managers who want to build more capable, engaged and empowered teams.
We also have coming up in August and September.
