The world’s leading business coach Clay Clark teams up with Thrive15 business coach and cultural warrior Marshall Morris to recap the three steps needed to delegate effectively. The first step in effective delegation is to make sure and verify that effective communication has occurred. You must make sure that all parties that are involved in the communication understand what you are saying and what needs to be done. This verification process will make sure that the person knows exactly what needs to be done and will reduce the likelihood of the wrong thing being done. You must make sure that someone understands what needs to be done. The second step in effective delegation is that you must teach the why and how a task must be completed. Without your team members understanding how and why something in your business must be done, it runs the risk of the team member doing it the wrong way and potentially taking longer than necessary to do it. Clay tells us about how, when trying to motivate someone to write search engine optimization articles, you must have high quality, original content. Clay mentions that if you do not explain the importance of doing something a certain way, and showing someone how to do something a certain way, it could prevent your customers from getting the service and product that they need. The third step in the three steps to effective delegation is that you must relentlessly inspect and follow up on what you expect. You cannot be weak on your follow up and anything less than relentless follow up will produce terrible results. It is your year to grow your business more than you have ever grown it before.
