Just as proper delegation requires you to think afresh about yourself as a leader and what you do with your time, it also requires you to think differently about the person who will be the delegatee, your partner in the endeavour. We start by peeking into the alchemy of delegation and how it is a powerful motivator. We address the sticking point of trust, providing a useful diagnostic tool to help you rate the trustworthiness of those you’re thinking of delegating to. And we explore attitudes you can cultivate to get the most out of the new relationship.
