Task delegation is a crucial component of effective leadership. Yet, many leaders struggle to delegate and impart unclear expectations, causing further confusion. Moreover, some employees aren’t receptive to these assignments because they may lack the skills or interests to complete them. So how can you incentivize employees to complete assigned tasks?
If you want to grow as a leader, Luis Scott says you must communicate expectations clearly, consider your employees’ skill levels and training, and align your team with your vision. Luis’ tip for transparent communication is to write down your instructions for a given task, helping you objectively determine if it’s succinct enough for your employees to understand. When building a team for task delegation, it’s important to merge passion and skill so you can encourage them to produce the outcome you want to achieve.
Join Luis Scott in today’s episode of The Guts and Glory Show as he talks about delegating assignments effectively, the common barriers to delegation, and why people struggle to delegate and receive tasks.
