shared by Doris Reeves-Lipscomb on 06 Mar 17 - Cached

Don't dismiss delegation as an outmoded concept that's part of the "command-and-control" model of years past. You may not believe in rigid, hierarchical organizations. But even the founders of flatter, more collaborative young businesses must ensure that every employee can acquire higher-level skills and duties.

Beware of giving the following excuses to avoid delegating: "It takes too long to explain." "No one on my staff is capable of doing it." "If you want it done right, you have to do it yourself." "My people are already overworked. I can't dump anything more on them."

Paul Lemberg writes about delegating--five components--give the job to someone who can get it done; communicate precise conditions of satisfaction; work out a plan; set up a structure for accountability; and get buy-in. Believe these components are even more important for remote workers and volunteers.

Gallup doesn’t mince words on this issue: “For fully remote employees, managers are falling down on the fundamental aspects of performance development—those that are based on the manager-employee relationship—and perhaps increasing the risk that the employee will leave for a better opportunity to progress with another company.” But the fix isn’t particularly complex—it’s just a matter of building in more of those conversations with remote workers of all stripes.

We become indispensable and invaluable to our organization because what we provide goes so far beyond bullet points or a job description or a job title,” Rao said. “When nobody does what you do in the way you do it … the competition and all the standard metrics by which you’re typically measured no longer matter, because the factors that distinguish your work are so personal that nothing or nobody can replicate it. You’re not the best at what you do, you’re the only.”
