Delegation Skills for the Workplace

Supervisory and management
Mastering a Critical Skill for Empowering Others and Achieving Results
Of all the key competencies for supervisors and managers, two of the most important are learning to manage individual performance on a daily basis and learning to delegate. Both represent difficult learning curves. Without mastering delegation, it is impossible to expand your range of responsibility, to empower others or to grow into your role and responsibilities. For many, it is a difficult transition from being paid for doing it yourself to getting the work done through others. Delegation is a critical skill to assist time-starved supervisors and managers in becoming more effective for themselves, their teams and their organizations.
This course offers a mix of self-awareness, guidance, skills, ideas, tools and methods to master this critical competence.
