Deep dives
Delegating tasks versus decisions in business ownership
In business ownership, delegating tasks to employees is common, where all decisions flow through the owner. This approach can lead to wealth generation but results in every problem being directed to the owner. A shift to the second level of delegation involves empowering employees to make decisions. By teaching employees to solve problems independently, business owners can create a more efficient and effective work environment, fostering growth and enabling the owner to step back from daily operations.
