Overview
Clear, timely and purposeful delegation can boost the productivity of individuals, teams and organisations, yet many managers find themselves lacking the skills or the confidence to do it well. This practical Effective Delegation course provides an insight into what to delegate, when, to whom and how. It will also provide coaching and development techniques that you can put into practice immediately, as the ability to provide clear support and feedback is fundamental to delegating effectively.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF EFFECTIVE DELEGATION?
One of the biggest barriers to organisational success is not having the right people doing the right tasks at the right time. As a result of this, time and resources are wasted and staff morale is depleted.
Effective delegation can overcome these issues by making sure line managers are maximising potential and productivity of their team, making the organisation more cost effective. When it is planned and executed effectively, delegation enables organisations to tap into existing talent and making efficient use of their most valuable resource, their people. This in turn will maximise staff morale and retention.
Simple to arrange and highly effective - you can choose to run this course exactly as described or we can create a customised solution that meets your specific needs.
As a general rule, if you have four or more employees with similar learning needs, an in-company programme will be the most efficient and cost-effective choice for you. Learning is usually delivered at your premises.
Our specialist facilitators are experts in their respective fields, and can tailor our existing courses to suit the specific needs of your organisation - or alternatively, design courses and programmes that are entirely bespoke, crafted in response to the unique requirements of your business.
