Delegationg...a Key to Your Success

The Art of Delegation… Delegation is a necessary, if often difficult skill. This is a fact I am reminded of almost daily as I work with business owners, managers and entrepreneurs.

In reality, letting go of most anything in life can be a hard thing to do. So it stands to reason that effective delegation of important decision-making responsibilities can be an on-going challenge facing business owners. Over time, however, this skill can be one of the most critical for growing and sustaining success. Below are a few tips to help us delegate more effectively

- - Decide what you want to delegate!

- - Clearly identify your expectations, including guidelines, results or methods to be used as well as resources and budget restrictions

- - Tell the employee why you have chosen them for the task (a great way to boost confidence & employee morale!)

- - Encourage feedback throughout and at the end of the project

- - Remember that by delegating more it will not only get easier, but employees will begin to ask “What should I do?” and feel more comfortable making their own decisions.

Re: Success - I study success intently, and would like to share: Here's two excellent and nearly identical success-formulas from a couple of the world's masters. FIRST FORMULA: 1. Passionate Desire 2. Clear, Definite Purpose 3. Committed Decision 4. Take Action In Faith (Bonus Secret Sauce: 5. Repeat Consistently) I made a video about this, but am not allowed to link it yet. Google "Ryze Success Steps" for it. Oh, and this is Napoleon Hill's (Master Of Success Laws)'s Formula. SECOND FORMULA: 1. Passionate Desire 2. Understand It Is Already Done (Faith) 3. Relax & Allow It To Unfold (Go about your life calmly) This one is courtesy of Abraham-Hicks (inspiration for the movie The Secret). Hope that helps!
Success Strategies - How to get the results you want now? Success Strategies and Action Steps I have used are: The Power of Choice Where you are at this present moment, is exactly perfect from the choices you have made. If you want to be somewhere else, you have to decide clearly what that is (your goal/outcome) and create action steps to achieve this. The Power of Focus The book "The Power of Focus" by Jack Canfield, Mark Victor Hansen and Les Hewitt, is one of my treasures in my Entrepreneur Library. If you focus on what you want versus what you do not want, your conscious and sub-conscious mind will direct attention to this. The movie, What the Bleep, Down the Rabbit Hole, explains this in detail about quantum physics and what we create in our lives. The Power of Commitment This is not about commitment to others. The first step is the commitment, your word, you make to yourself. Accountability and responsibility are additional success strategies and ingredients to creating the success, defined by you, that you want. The commitment to others reflects your integrity, your word and the team you work with. Co-workers, clients, yoru family, friends and community.
