The Secrets of Skilled Delegation
Most field service leaders are natural problem solvers, often having started their career as a field service technician or engineer themselves. Whilst this is an admirable trait it can result in wanting to do too much. Yet, with so much going on in field service management, we simply have to learn how and when to delegate. In this course we teach you how.
Course Description:
When you think of a leader, who do you imagine? Chances are, it’s someone who knows the difference between doing and leading. Great leaders strategically guide the team’s work—they don’t do the team’s work. That’s where delegation comes in. Delegation is assigning responsibility for specific activities to others.
In this course, you’ll learn why you should delegate, how to do it, how to select the right people for the job, and how to get out of the way so they can complete their assignments.
