When Should you delegate?
Delegation should be done when the task:
– Is not your strength and someone else has more skill
– Requires a lower level of expertise
– Will take more time than you can afford and someone else has the time
– Would be a good training opportunity
To delegate effectively you have to follow a proper delegation process, first of all you need to clearly write down the following:
Before Delegating make sure you :
1. Identify the task
2. Determine:
a) Who has the skill, ability and time, OR
b) Who is ready to be trained on this task

b) How it can contribute to the person's success?
2. Describe how to do the task and what is needed in terms of results.
a) Invest time and write the results down.
b) Write the results as a SMART goal.
3. Give the person the authority they need to do the job.
a) Allow them to contribute their own ideas on how to proceed.

4. Indicate when the job needs to be completed and get agreement.
5. Check for understanding by asking the other person to:
