Do you know your core competencies as an entrepreneur? Do you know the core competencies of your team members/contractors? This will help you to know what to delegate.
We have previously explored the importance of identifying your Unique Ability and core competencies, with the goal of both protecting and performing within your own Unique Ability and delegating everything you are not good at.
However, a vital part of delegating is to determine not only your own skill sets, but the skill sets needed by others to complete your tasks/projects. Your project must be delegated to the right person—someone with the right instincts, skill set, comfort level, attitude, and core competency. Recognize that if you are delegating a very important job to a person for whom that job is not right, you are delegating incompetence. Everyone on your team should be performing within his or her Unique Ability®.
Delegating is not simply a matter of passing tasks from your plate to someone else’s. It is important to become familiar with your team members’ unique abilities before giving pieces of your business to them to handle. Delegating is essential to your success and growth.
