Signs that you need to develop your delegation skills
Ahmed November 3, 2024
You need to develop your delegation skills if:
-
Your inbox is always full. You're regularly working overtime on tasks that "only you can do."
-
You feel indispensable. Your staff doesn't seem energized, and they don't seem to make an extra effort.
-
Your team doesn't seem to take ownership of projects. You feel that you're "the only one who cares."
-
You're often interrupted by requests for help. Your employees often need to ask for guidance and clarification of work assignments.
-
You frequently intervene in delegated tasks or projects. You second-guess team members' decisions and personally redo unsatisfactory work.
-
Your people don't take responsibility for tasks or projects. They don't complete delegated assignments on time, or they're missing deadlines.
