Chances are you stink at delegation and you’re either a task hoarder or a task dumper.
If these look familiar, you’re probably a task hoarder:
“It’ll be faster to do it myself”
“I’ll have to go back and fix it”
“I don’t have time to train someone how to do this”
“It’s really my job to take care of this”
If these look familiar, you’re probably a task dumper:
“They should know how to do that”
“Why didn’t they get it done in time?”
“This is not what I was asking for”
“I am slammed, take care of this please” (on the way out the door to something else)
