Leaders in the top 10% of delegators also have teams who are 29% more highly engaged and 22% more likely to stay in their jobs. – FranklinCovey Insights
One of the most overlooked skills that leaders have to master is delegation. As a new leader, it can be difficult to let go of the DIY mindset. In fact, many leaders believe, “I can do it better and faster myself.”
But great leaders understand the power of leverage. They know that when they activate the talents of their team members, everyone can achieve more together. By learning to effectively match assignments to their people based on skill, will, and time, they can focus on supporting the gaps and aligning shared expectations to unleash performance for the entire team.
Take a trip on the Delegator Elevator™
Effective delegation requires leaders to determine how much or the type of support to give each team member. Once you’ve identified the skill level of each team member, you can use our Delegator Elevator tool to match their skill level to the appropriate persona and level of support needed. Based on the support you provide, you’ll elevate your team’s skills and autonomy over time, helping them go from the proverbial ground floor to the penthouse.
Imagine the personal and organisational cost of failing to fully engage the passion, talent, and intelligence of the workforce. It is far greater than all taxes, interest charges, and labour costs put together!”
