Presenter:  Linda Bruno

You know you should. You wish you could. But delegation has never been your
strong suit - and it's starting to show. Take heart! This is an area you can
improve - it just takes knowing yourself, knowing your employees, and
knowing how to put that knowledge to work for you!

In The Art of Delegating, you'll learn specific tips to help you delegate
more effectively - not just more - and you'll also discover why doing so is
important to your success as a supervisor. We'll uncover why we aren't
better at it in the first place, along with some important questions to
consider when you finally make that leap to delegating on a consistent
basis. 

In Session I, Delegating 101, we'll start with a look at why delegation is
more important than ever for you as a supervisor. We'll get a glimpse of
what is consuming your time each day - and how to decide which of those
tasks are "delegation-ready." We'll also look at tasks you've already
delegated to determine if they've been delegated for the right reason - or
just to reduce the slushpile (!). In the process, we'll take a sneak peak at
some of the reasons we haven't been delegating - and why we don't really
want to. Our mission (should we choose to accept it!), will be to step back
and look at what we've been doing - what's been working well in the realm of
delegating and where might we be able to improve?

In Session II, Delegation - Taking It To the Next Level, we'll cover 9
specific aspects of a task we need to look at when we consider delegating to
our staff, details that will not only help us decide whether the job should
be delegated, but also to whom? We'll touch on how our personalities affect
whether or not we are willing to let go of some of our work, as well as how
our employees' personalities should influence to whom we assign what task,
project, or responsibility. You'll come away from this session with a
checklist of key points to consider when matching the right employee to the
work you want done, as well as a bird's eye view of the details that will
ensure your success when delegating.

Don't miss this information-packed 2-part workshop! You'll come away with
valuable information that will help you perform your job more effectively -
and that makes work more fun!
