In this third episode in the Self Storage Leadership Series, I want to talk about a trait an effective Leader has that has always been rather elusive to me… The Art of Delegation.
I call it an art because it requires almost an intuitive skill, in my humble opinion. I believe this because, in my experience, there are so many variables involved that it is hard to quantify who will be the best person to delegate to.
I have learned four ideas about effective delegation over the years that I think can really help with this.
