- Know your direct reports and their capabilities. Be sure the people to whom you are delegating have the initiative, motivation, skills, abilities, and experience to handle the task.
- Delegate to the lowest possible level, along with the authority to carry out decisions
- Clarify expectations. Discuss what the objectives are to support the strategy and outline the tactics for achieving the goals.
- Delegate entire projects, not pieces of it. Allow the person to “own” the task.
- Agree on priorities
- Clarify areas of accountability, not just for tasks but for decisions too.
- Provide resources and support.
- Discuss timelines and status updates, generally a 30/60/90/ end of the year format for assessing results works well.
- Mentor and coach as needed.
- Listen to feedback and avoid jumping in to fix problems.
