Delegate, delegate, delegate - that's what every leader is taught from day one.
But, delegating -- both the how and the what -- takes time and attention that leaders just don't have
This book reverses the classic approach to leadership, from "What are you going to delegate?" to "What are you not going to delegate?"
There are three elements to this new paradigm:
- Stop being the delegator-in-chief. Delegate the delegation.
- Decide what is so important that you're not going to delegate it.
- Tell your team to delegate everything that's not on your list of critical roles.
Tom Gehring outlines the underlying principles of non-delegation, details the seven roles so important that only the leader can and should be doing them, and presents four case studies that demonstrate the application of this new leadership paradigm.
Anecdotes and examples from the author's military and civilian career bring to life the roles in their application.
This book is your roadmap to regaining control of your calendar and your focus.
