Effective Time Management Strategies
Decide who, beside yourself, could perform each
one.
If this is difficult, imagine you if you were somehow
restricted to only delegating. Who would do your
job?
When possible, give employees choices. Ask them
to decide what tasks they would like to assume.
If some employees might be more capable in
specific areas, consider having employees
exchange tasks.
Remember delegating should free you of time.
There is a fine line between successful delegating
and failure from other’s incompetence. Be sure to
give eager employees the opportunity to try new
responsibilities, but do not delegate tasks that are
beyond people’s abilities. Consider starting or
paying for educational or training programs for
ambitious employees.
Be careful about dividing a task among people.
Grouping people could create new human
management challenges that eradicate any time
savings.
