Class Description

Understanding how to delegate appropriately for team success is a management skill many organizational leaders lack. Leaders are more productive, their teams experience more wins, and their agencies experience optimal performance when those at the helm delegate appropriately. This class is designed to help leaders both understand the importance of premeditated delegation for time management and agency success and to enable leaders to identify their own strengths & weaknesses, allowing them to delegate strategically and better manage their time. It will help leaders identify the strengths of their team members— learning to whom they should delegate what for the greatest productivity. Through thorough hands-on learning experience, participants will begin to master the science of strategic delegation (what, when, to whom, how).
