This course is focused on the important management skill of delegating effectively. You will have the opportunity to practice delegating one of your own tasks in a safe and supportive environment, following a comprehensive five-stage structure that covers: identifying tasks to delegate, who to delegate to and why, how to brief in a task monitoring progress and giving feedback upon completion. You will leave with a clear plan for delegating a specific task from your own to-do list to a named individual.
This course is suitable for people with management responsibility who would like to practice how to use effective delegation as a tool to facilitate their own time management and to develop and motivate others.
By the end of this course you will be able to:
- Identify tasks that can and can‘t be delegated
- Select an appropriate person to delegate to, based on competence and commitment
- Analyse the task and the individual to choose the right approach to delegation
- Set a clear objective for a task to be delegated
- Carry out an effective briefing conversation, using four simple steps
- Implement an appropriate monitoring system
- Deliver motivational and constructive feedback upon completion of a task

Delegation also plays a key part in both motivation and development, giving people the opportunity to learn new skills or increase their knowledge at the same time as fulfilling an important task. Although delegation is a critical leadership tool, it is often underused because leaders frequently fear letting go or losing control.
Don’t let this happen to you! If you can learn how to delegate effectively, you will not only improve your team’s productivity, you will also grow your ability to develop others and help them take on new and greater responsibilities. You will also create more time and space for yourself to work on the higher-order tasks that are vital for your success – and the success of your organisation.

- Overcome the barriers that can sometimes stop you from delegating
