Abstract

We’ll look at 10 key factors for successful delegation conversations in this chapter. Some of these vital aspects of delegation should be done (or not done) in the conversation itself, other factors should be considered before the delegation conversation, and others should be kept in mind as general principles. They’re all important considerations nevertheless.

The team member needs to understand what success looks like. But give them the freedom and autonomy to decide how best to go about achieving this outcome.
