In this episode, I break down how to delegate effectively using a clear quadrant-based decision matrix. Whether you’re leading a team of one or many, learning how to delegate the right way will help you scale faster, lead better, and stop being the bottleneck.

Listen in as I explain the four types of tasks you should evaluate, when to delegate them, and how to do it without sabotaging your results.

💡 The Delegation Matrix:

• Unique & High-Value: These stay on your plate (e.g., personal content creation).
• Unique & Low-Value: Delegate if they don’t drive big results—even if you’re good at them.
• General & High-Value: Delegate with training and oversight (e.g., scheduling email marketing).
• General & Low-Value: Always delegate (e.g., calendar tasks, admin work).

🚫 5 Delegation Mistakes to Avoid:

• Skipping the “why”—explain the purpose of the task.
• Neglecting training or setting clear standards.
• Starting with high-value tasks too soon.
• Failing to follow up with your team.
• Being afraid to hold people accountable.

✅ 5 Delegation Must-Do’s:

• Empower your team with autonomy and support.
• Challenge them to learn and solve problems.
• Give feedback AND praise—be specific and sincere.
• Encourage self-critique to build a growth culture.
• Provide a clear path for growth and long-term vision.

📌 Real Talk:

• Delegation doesn’t mean dumping tasks you hate—it means building a team that runs without you.
• If you want leverage in your business, you must master delegation.
• It’s not easy—but it’s one of the highest ROI skills an entrepreneur can develop.
