"You need to delegate more." << have you ever gotten this feedback? Managers know *in theory* that we're supposed to delegate, but there are a lot of barriers that get in the way of us putting it into practice. There's an art and a science to delegation—and new managers need more information on why delegation is important (not just for you, but for your team!) and how to actually do it. Here's a fantastic new article from Shanna Hocking for Harvard Business Review that walks you through the key points every new manager needs to know to delegate effectively. (Shanna, this article is fantastic and I'm going to share it with every new manager I work with!)
