The Cost of Delegation
It is a common myth that “ My Business cannot afford to hire someone to delegate to”.
The honest truth is your business cannot afford for you not to delegate!
In this post, I want to look at the cost of not delegating!
Loss of time
Let’s face it, there is never enough time in a day for a business owner. We are all being pulled from every angle all day long. Every task seems equally important and time sensitive and no matter what you do either you will have something that did not get completed by the end of the day OR your family is angry that you have stayed late and missed supper every night this week and your son’s hockey game on Saturday.
~ You lose important time in your day that you will never get back by not delegating ~
Not Meeting Expectations and Timelines
“I am so sorry, I didn’t have time to complete that project today, I will try to get it to you by the end of the day tomorrow. “ If you are finding this sentence is something you are often saying, you may soon find out that not delegating is costing you the trust and confidence of your co-workers, employees or customers.
Burn Out
Our health is the most important thing we have. If it was not for your health you could not enjoy your family, friends, hobbies or business to their full extent.
~ Don’t let the lack of delegation cost you your health! ~
Mistakes
It is a fact that when you are tired you are more likely to make mistakes. Depending on your career, mistakes can lead to money loss, injury or even the loss of a project/client.
~ Multi-tasking and hurrying will lower your quality of work and attention to detail ~
