Achieves more from everyone
When you assign work to others do you always achieve the desired outcomes?
In an increasingly complex world, successful people concentrate on what they do best. This means working closely with colleagues and partners all of whom play a part in the team and contribute to the mix of work.
The competence of assigning and receiving work effectively is crucial but most people are unaware of their strengths and weaknesses.

If we do it badly we will be overworked, isolated and ineffective.
-
If we are successful it will help you connect with those around you
We need to understand both our preference for assigning particular types of work and how we communicate with different people about work expectations.
If we ignore this we will:
- Accumulate work we do not want
- Leave other work undone
- Feel frustrated and put upon
Take stock of the way you pass work to other
Become more aware of what you really want
