What Smart Women Get Wrong About Delegation with Emily Morgan
from Work + Life Harmony | Time Management, Organization and Planning for Overwhelmed Women · host Megan Sumrell: Time Management and Productivity Coach
Most of us have tried delegation. We've handed things off, watched it fall apart, and quietly decided it's more trouble than it's worth. Emily Morgan has spent nearly 20 years studying exactly why that happens and what the people who actually crack it are doing differently.Emily is the founder of Delegate Solutions, a fractional executive assistant company, and author of Let It Go (2nd Edition, out July 23rd). She brings real frameworks to this conversation, not just the mindset piece, but a full system for figuring out what only you should be doing, what's draining you that doesn't have to, and how to actually hand things off in a way that sticks. I walked away from this one with a few things I'm changing immediately.What you'll learn in this episode:Why delegation keeps failing and what the people who actually crack it are doing differentlyThe four-quadrant Delegate Freedom Analysis, including what Emily calls the "suck bucket" and the "martyr zone"The "Act Your Wage" exercise that puts a real dollar amount on every task you're holding ontoWhy the people on your team actually want to be delegated toWhat tasks people think are "too personal" to outsource and why that thinking is costing youConnect with EmilyWebsite: www.delegatesolutions.comLinkedin: www.linkedin.com/in/delegatesolutionsFacebook: www.facebook.com/DelegateSolutionsSister company: www.learnwithverve.com ________________________________💻 Free TrainingOverwhelmed?
