Susan Drumm explains why delegation fails: leaders either hoard tasks because they don't trust their team, blocking their own strategic work, or dump tasks without guidance. Both patterns kill growth.
And what I find stops that. There are several different things that stop that, but one in big is delegation and how people delegate. Because I find it tends to be a black and white issue. Either I hold on to too much, I don't trust the people to do what they need to do, and therefore I can't rise to the level of what I need to do from a visionary standpoint, or I throw it over the fence and hope it works and don't provide the guidance that's necessary to have people be successful and have you be successful. And so this dichotomy is where a lot of leaders get stuck.
