Description

Effective managers move work off their plate so they can work on the things that only they can do. This doesn't mean shoving the stuff you don't like doing onto your directs. It does mean helping them learn and grow by giving them more responsibility and more complex work. And, it's easy – 99% of the time, your directs will agree to take on new work. In this feed, we give you all the guidance you need to start and continue delegating effectively.
Manager Tools is a weekly business podcast focused on helping professionals become more effective managers and leaders. Each week, we discuss specific actions for professionals to take to achieve their desired management and career objectives. Manager Tools won Best Business Podcast Award in 2006, 2007, 2008, and 2012 as well as the People's Choice Award in 2008. The Business Podcast Award is now named after Manager Tools.
