Delegation

Delegation is the practice of assigning tasks, responsibilities, and decision making authority to team members based on their capabilities and development needs. In practice, managers identify which tasks can be handed off, match them to appropriate employees, provide clear instructions and autonomy, and monitor progress while allowing the person to own the work. This skill enables leaders to increase team capacity, develop employee capabilities, and focus their own time on higher level strategic priorities.

Delegation sits under Team Leadership and Management in the Leadership & Management domain of the Luminid skills catalogue.
