Delegate Like a Boss: Find Your Unique Ability and Stop Doing the Rest

Identify their unique ability (the work they’re best at, love doing, and that creates the most impact).
Recognize tasks they should delegate.
Learn a simple framework for assigning, following up, and trusting others with tasks.

The 4 D’s Model:

Do — If it’s in your Unique Ability, keep it.

Delegate — If someone else can do it 80% as well or better.

Delete — If it doesn’t truly need to be done.

Delay — If it’s important but not urgent.

Delegation Steps:

Choose the right person (skill + availability + willingness).

Give context, not just tasks — explain the “why” behind the work.

Agree on the outcome — what success looks like.

Set check-in points — when you’ll follow up.

Let go — avoid “yo-yo delegation” (taking the task back).
