What is the difference between outsourcing and delegating? They are both approaches you can take to redistributing your workload. This is key to building a business that can operate smoothly without you – giving you more opportunity to grow and scale sustainably....
While your team is going about managing their own routine processes, keeping all of their task instructions up to date, you can be the one giving them feedback and supporting them.
I hope these five tips have been helpful, and I hope that they have made you realise that maybe you can get back on that delegation horse again. Start looking for ways to not only clear your desk, but to raise up leaders in your company, because doing this is how you will be able to be truly free and have a business that is scalable.
Managing your outlook is an essential part of leadership, making sure that you’re always feeding on quality knowledge and insights to fuel you through every step of the journey. It is a vital aspect to thriving in business, and becoming the business leader that your business needs you to become.
When you are managing a business, delegating the repetitive lower-level tasks will be an important step towards growing your business further.
Delegation will play an important role in easing the pressure you face personally, and in growing your business in a positive and sustainable way. In a recent study it was found that 53 percent of business owners believe that they can grow their business by more than 20 percent if they delegate 10 percent of their workload to someone else. Such potential is yours to exploit!
Hopefully, this has been helpful, and if you recognise any of these games being played, now you can avoid them in the future!
I hope that these five roadblocks have been helpful, and if you see yourself in some of them, then hopefully this might help to clear the way through.
Knowing when to, and when not to delegate, is just as important as effective delegation itself. Getting this right will keep your business growing and growing!
Delegation can be scary, your business represents you, and it is how you make your mark on the world. Because of this you may want to personally supervise everything and anything within your business, to make sure it is right. But with a bit of investment in time, people, processes and trust, you will make it to the end to reduce the workload on your desk.
Delegation should not be a one off event when you’re putting on a new team member, but an ongoing foundational approach to the growth journey of your business.
It’s safe to say that despite their pride in a job well done, their love of variety, or the need to maintain high business standards, the vast majority of business owners want to master the art of delegation.
