1 Embrace Mindset

To delegate effectively, you need to adopt a mindset that values the growth and development of your team as much as your own progress. Understand that delegation isn't just about offloading work; it's about empowering others. This shift in perspective helps you identify which tasks can be delegated and ensures you're doing it for the right reasons. Remember, effective delegation leads to a more capable and confident team, which reflects positively on your leadership abilities.

It absolutely starts with embracing mindset especially for 1st time leaders who were exceptional individual contributors who may get trapped they need to do everything on their own and don’t delegate enough.. so getting comfortable with giving tasks to someone else in your team is the start. This frees up your time to do some more higher value activities or strategic projects. 2nd mindset I call is “being OK w/a B” ;-) : here you need to be OK things will be done differently when you delegate (both in terms of pace or final outcome) and maybe different than what you would approached it.. but if it gets the deliverable accept it and move on. Don’t micromanage it to have it done like you would have done it and destroy team trust!!!

En mi experiencia la delegación es el germen de la evolución y del cambio dentro del equipo. Es un desafío para la persona que delega y para la delegada. La persona que delega tiene que estar dispuesta a entender y apoyar nuevas perspectivas. La delegación refuerza la confianza de las personas en ellas mismas y permite al líder tener conversaciones profundas del negocio con los colaboradores

2 Identify Tasks

The first step in delegation is to assess your workload and identify tasks that others can handle. Look for activities that are time-consuming but not necessarily requiring your unique expertise. This might include administrative duties, routine reports, or even aspects of a project that align with a team member's skills. By freeing up your schedule from these tasks, you can concentrate on strategic planning and other high-level responsibilities that are crucial for your career advancement.

Mucho se ha hablado sobre la ventaja para el líder de delegar y que esto facilite que pueda afrontar otras actividades estratégicas o de mayor alcance; pero delegar no debe considerarse como traspasar simplemente tareas para ganar tiempo, sino como una forma de evolucionar el cómo y el qué de lo que se hace; enfocar las conversaciones con los colaboradores en el para qué y el por qué y a partir de aquí dar libertad para cuestionar cómo se están haciendo las cosas y permitir evolución. En la delegación tiene que haber un desafío para la persona que realiza la tarea, no debe ser simplemente esperar 100% de continuidad. Delegar es dejar hacer.

3 Choose Delegates

Choosing the right person for the task is crucial. Consider your team members' current skills, their desire to learn, and their workload. It's important to match the task with the individual's career goals and capabilities to ensure it's a growth opportunity for them. This not only aids their professional development but also ensures the task is completed efficiently, allowing you to trust in their work and focus on your own responsibilities.

En mi experiencia la clave principal está en que la persona delegada quiera participar, se comprometa a trabajar en la tarea, entienda el valor para los objetivos y resultados del equipo y para su propio desarrollo personal. Si esta condición, la realidad es que el líder no delega simplemente da instrucciones.

4 Communicate Clearly

Clear communication is the cornerstone of successful delegation. When assigning a task, be explicit about what you expect, the deadline, and the level of authority the delegatee has. Provide all the necessary resources and information they might need to complete the task. This clarity prevents misunderstandings and ensures that the work is done according to your standards, which is essential when you're ultimately accountable for the outcome.

Enfatizar la importancia de la actividad para los resultados y los valores de la empresa; establecer la visión y el impacto sobre la marca. Dejar que la persona comprenda la importancia actual de la acción que debe realizar y una vez que la persona entienda esto, reunirse para contrastar opiniones. Aquí, es clave que la persona líder escuche las propuestas, alinee y aliente. Establecer el sistema de seguimiento, y también por parte del/de la líder, planificar cómo aplicará el reconocimiento por el esfuerzo de la otra persona.

5 Support Growth

After delegating a task, provide support and guidance without micromanaging. Encourage questions and offer help when needed, but allow your team member to take ownership of the task. This support not only helps them develop their skills but also builds trust. By showing confidence in their abilities, you foster a more engaged and competent team, which is beneficial for the overall workplace design and your career trajectory.

6 Monitor Progress

Finally, keep track of the delegated tasks without hovering over your team members' shoulders. Set up regular check-ins to monitor progress and address any issues early on. This approach ensures that tasks are on track and provides an opportunity for feedback. By staying involved at a strategic level, you maintain control over the outcomes while still giving your team the space they need to grow and succeed.

Sin medición no hay progreso real ni reconocimiento. No se afianza una cultura de desarrollo y de excelencia. Lo que no se monitoriza ya declara que no es importante. Establecer un calendario de seguimiento en función de la actividad delegada e informar hacía arriba en la jerarquía del funcionamiento de la actividad y del desarrollo de la persona. Unir estas actividades a las conversaciones de desarrollo de carrera.
