to save time and enhance productivity. Jaiswal explained that delegation
involves transferring responsibility
and some level of authority from one
person to another while maintaining
accountability.

often hesitate to delegate because
they finditdifficult, time-consuming,
or believe that no one can perform
the task as well as they can.

list 10 tasks they had completed the
previous day and then identify those
tasks that could have been delegated

communication when delegating
tasks, as well as the importance of

committed and accountable for the
