There was an article in the latest Oakville Chamber Advocate called "Want to Grow Your Business?" by John Breakey of UNIS LUMIN. A couple of points really hit home and are things that I see every day while coaching small business owners.
- The "I'm too busy" scenario - John calls this a short-term strategy. "Being too busy is a code word for not delegating enough". Learn to delegate!
- Owners that spend less time IN the business, have more profitable businesses. Learn how to work "on" your business, not "in" it!
- Think about where you are investing your time. Time IS money.
Good advice. The "I'm too busy" scenario is also something I see a lot of in the corporate world. So if you are a corporate leader and you are NOT delegating, ask yourself why. Effective delegation, delegation done properly, is good for both you and your people.
Now if only it would work on my kids!

Effective Delegation
- Define the task that you want to delegate - be specific
- Choose the person you are going to delegate to
- Make sure they have the ability, skills and desire to do the task
- Tell them why you are delegating (if it is just to get something off your desk - tell them that - be honest - don't try and glorify it)
- Explain the required outcome
- Agree on time frames
- Support, communicate and provide feedback
