Delegation is a key principle of effective leadership, but not all delegation is created equal. Handing off tasks you simply don’t want to do? That’s dumping. Recognizing team members’ skills, talents, and ambitions to learn, and delegating opportunities for them to grow and shine? Now that’s empowerment. In this session, you’ll learn from Melissa Farmer Richards, MPA, APR, CPC, principal and founder of iMarketingMix LLC, the differences and how to combine effective delegating with the art of guiding accountability rather than expecting it to happen naturally for the makings of a win-win scenario.
After the session is over, we’ll continue the conversation on our #management-leadership Slack channel. All members are welcome to join the Digital Collegium Slack Workspace.
