Key Takeaways:

• Delegation is one of the greatest tools for engagement and trust—it shows your team you believe in them.
• Leaders often resist delegation due to time constraints, fear of mistakes, or thinking it’s easier to do it themselves.
• The most effective leaders practice Dynamic Delegation, which includes 3 levels:
  1. Delegate the thinking – Let them create the plan.
  2. Delegate the task – Guide them as they execute.
  3. Delegate the outcome – Fully hand over ownership.
• Co-creation is key—when people have ownership in the process, they perform at a higher level.
