Delegation 152 slides with Participant Handout

Effective delegation will improve efficiency in the workplace. Delegation is appointing a person to act on one's behalf. The word "delegation" was first used to mean "the act of delegating" in the 1610s. Delegate (v.) "to send with power to transact business as a representative," 1520s, from past-participle stem of Latin delegare "to send as a representative," from de "from, away" (see de-) + legare "send with a commission," possibly literally "engage by contract" and related to lex (genitive legis) "contract, law," from PIE root *leg- (1) "to collect, gather."

Did you know that... a paradox of delegation is that it is initially time-consuming. However, the time spent in setting up systems and training staff will pay off in the long term. The principles of delegation are relatively easy to understand; the problem is getting managers to delegate in practice. Obstacles to successful delegation may include lack of training and sense of insecurity on the part of the manager, or external factors such as an absence of suitably skilled staff or the existence of jealousies between employees and associates.

Goal Setting 150 slides with Participant Handout

Goal setting involves establishing specific, measurable, and time-targeted objectives. Like setting personal goals, setting business goals provides us with direction and motivation. This process involves setting the right goals that will keep your business on track rather than derail it. Setting goals helps trigger new behaviors, helps guides your focus and helps you sustain that momentum in life. Goals also help align your focus and promote a sense of self-mastery. In the end, you can't manage what you don't measure and you can't improve upon something that you don't properly manage.

Did you know that... your chances of completing a goal increase to 40% if you assign a date by which you’ll complete that goal. Did you know that the probability of completing any goal increases by 50% if you plan out how you will accomplish your goal? If you commit to someone else that you are going to accomplish a certain goal you’ve just increased the chances of meeting that goal by 65%! Finally, did you know that if you have a specific accountability appointment to check in on the status of your progress as you reach your goal that you’ll increase the probability of meeting your goal by 95%?
