How to Delegate Like a Boss - Wellbeing Wisdom Tiny Bites Podcast

Do you have a tough time delegating?

Most people do, because most people were praised for accomplishments made in childhood, which made us want to accomplish more so we could get more praise.

Giving up a task can feel like giving up the opportunity for praise and most people don’t want to do that. Right up until the first time their leadership skills are praised because they delegated!

Yep, it’s true – when you’re struggling under a heavy workload and you won’t delegate, you are not leadership material. Leaders delegate. They have to delegate or they’d have no people to lead and no time to do anything but all the tasks that fall under their umbrella of influence.

Do you want to be seen as leadership material? Do you want to be promoted from mid-level management to the upper echelons? First, know your people – their strengths and weaknesses. Next, delegate what you can to people based on their skillsets, reliability, and respect for deadlines.

Now, sit back and bask in the glow of your newly promotable self!
