Today are talking about key #1 to being an effective delegator, which is to Understand What It Means To Delegate.

Delegating a job or task to someone underneath you is not always easy, especially at first… but it is an essential part of growth, and you will likely find that you will be unable to move forward with any kind of speed if you do not have what it takes to turn a project or activity over to someone else. Having said this, it is important that you do not simply delegate to delegate. This decision must be made with great care and professionalism. 

Delegating to the wrong person could be a catastrophe! However, if you do have the option to hand the project to someone below you who is capable of seeing it through to the end, then you will have the opportunity to TRULY realize how much power there is in the ability to pass things off to trusted employees or colleagues. This is what delegation is. You are giving something very important to someone who you trust, so that they can finish it for you. It is really that simple. You need to be able to communicate the needs of the project, as well as your need to be informed when certain milestones are reached. 

Delegation, if executed correctly, can free you up to do the things that you have to do, and only you can do. Being able to step away from projects that could hold you back is a huge bonus! Just remember, however, that great care must be taken to ensure that you are choosing the right person for the job!  Successful entrepreneurs are GREAT delegators.
