Performance review phrases delegation

What is delegation?

Delegation (in a people management context) happens when you give one of your staff members a task (or part of a task) to complete which, currently, you undertake

When delegation works successfully three things happen:

1.    You are allowed the time and space to do the most important parts of the job really well.  You do the work only you can do

2.    Your staff members take charge of some work which develops their ability and potential

3.    You make the most effective use of the resources available to you

Delegation is a key tool in the effective management of time, people and resources yet managers are often reluctant to delegate. Why? Because;

·         some managers just don’t see the value of delegation

·         some managers see some value but reckon that the costs – in terms of time needed to delegate – outweigh the benefits
