126: Delegating Decision Making
In this episode of The Axiom Podcast, Shannon and Joey discuss the difficulties and advantages of delegating tasks as a leader and offer practical advice on improving delegation skills.
The conversation starts with why delegation is challenging for high achievers. It is difficult to relinquish control of tasks, but it will bear much fruit for the leader and team members involved.
Joey explains delegation involves a trade-off because explaining tasks and training others to handle them takes time. Nevertheless, empowering others to take over responsibilities can save leaders time in the long run.
