Delegating makes good business sense

Many of us grew up being taught that the best way to get something done right is to do it yourself! That’s okay advice if you are happy going alone in life and business. But if you want to grow, to expand, to push boundaries, then it’s essential to also learn the art of delegation. However, it does require a mind-shift - ultimately, it’s about learning to trust people around you, to empower them to run with your ideas, to give them more responsibility. It can be scary at first, but it just makes good business sense. As one of the most famous delegators in business, Richard Branson, once said: “If you really want to grow as an entrepreneur, you’ve got to learn to delegate. You’ll find that you have more time to focus on the big picture and achieve the things you need to do to make your product or service stand out."
