Getting your team to get stuff done without being a dictator.

Effective delegation is essential for any leader looking to build a strong and successful team. (Did you hear about the leader who tried to delegate a task to a cat? It was a cat-astrophe!) In all seriousness, delegation is a crucial skill for any leader to master. In this edition of TTLD, we’ll explore some tips for effective delegation that won't leave you feeling like you're herding cats.
