The ability to delegate is one of the most important skills of being a successful school principal, head of department or team leader, yet many struggle with delegation, seeing it as a time-consuming risk that leads to a loss of control and reduced work quality. Delegation handled effectively leads to increased overall efficiency, a stimulated and motivated staff and time savings.
