How to
delegate effectively to employees is a major hurdle and frustration, for MOST small business owners.
There is several reasons WHY owners don’t TRUST handing off responsibilities to others.
But the number one reason is FEAR. Yep, fear of losing control.
Simply put, owners FEEL, if they give too much responsibility to someone else, they’ll lose the ability to keep close tabs on the quality of the person’s work, which will affect their customers’ needs.
Which might result in losing business should the newly entrusted employee mess up.
Yes, fear that the employee would fail to do the job the way the owner would do it.
Unfortunately, many owners believe and say,
“It’s faster and safer if I just do the job myself”
“No one seems to do the job the right way”
“It hard to find a qualified person who really cares the way I do”
“If I don’t handle it, something bad will happen”, I just know it!
“This is my life, my baby; I can’t assign this to someone else”
So how do you delegate effectively and safely, having that mindset?
