Delegation
Definition
The least you need to know
Delegation is one of the four Personal Productivity skills in the Synergist's toolkit, alongside time management, priority management, and crisis management. It is the process of assigning formal authority, responsibility, and accountability for work to others, rooted in the purpose of management: producing results through people. Even when you have no direct reports, all teamwork involves intra-delegation, so everyone needs the skill. The supporting course builds it into a Five-Step Delegation Process and reads each VOPS Style against it.
