Utilizing Business Delegation

If I could manage to accomplish the ten tasks D.L. Moody notes and those were the only tasks I would ever need to accomplish, I would then choose to do the tasks personally and avoid the payroll liabilities.  But…… if  I were to choose to grow past the initial ten task requirements, I would need to have delegated the first few, hence freeing up time for me to address the newly presenting (and potentially delegatable) tasks.

This may have been why Jesus decided to teach us to fish, instead of just feeding us.  He may have had future plans also (ha,ha).

This article is in concurrence with an article I wrote recently, called The Art of Delegation. You make a good point that training employees to the point where one can delegate to them can be time-consuming, hence my article focuses on the benefits of hiring a virtual assistant to whom one can delegate as and when required, ultimately increasing the productivity of the business on the whole. I also agree with your point that delegation frees up time for a business owner that can be spent elsewhere, be it on other aspects of the business or stabilizing their work-life balance.
