Value creation is an increasingly important issue for today’s businesses. And the process involved relies heavily on the human resources already in place.

But how do you actually go about creating value for your organization? And how do you increase your own value and boost your career while you’re at it? You can’t get ahead until there’s someone available to take your place – someone who is ready to tackle the new challenges presented to them. Which is why effective delegation is more critical than ever.

Over the span of your career, you have probably been asked to train new employees and share your knowledge. So you may think that you already have a good idea of what delegating is all about. But have you ever considered the responsibility of the people you are delegating to? What role do they play in the process? What authority are you giving them?

This dynamic training program is a chance to explore the requirements for good delegation and the opportunities it creates. You will learn delegation structures and an engagement process for employees as they take on new responsibilities.
