Assignment of the authority to others

for particular functions ,tasks and

It is a shift of decision making

authority from one organization levelto a lower one.

Decide what is to be done. Tell somebody to do it.

Listen to reasons why it should not bedone, why it should be done by someoneelse, or why it should be done in a differentway.

Follow up to see if the thing has beendone.

Discover it has not been done.


7/15

Inquire why it has not been done. Listen to excuses from the person who

should have done it. Follow up again to see if the thing has been

done, only to discover it has been doneincorrectly.

Effective management is the application ofeffective managing skills to deal with

specific challenges and problems of eachorganization to reach their own missionand objectives.


9/15

Delegation uses scarce managementresources to best advantage.

Delegating responsibilities to the lowestpractical level allows organisations torespond more quickly and effectively tocomplex situations.

Subordinates may have a betterunderstanding of the situation or be in abetter position to make a decision.


10/15

Delegation increases the confidence ,aswell the competence of lower levelmanagers.

Responding to a lower bid by a competitor,handling a complaint from an importantcustomer, and taking an opportunity to

save money on materials that are orderedby 5:00 p.m today are all examples wherequick response is necessary and gooddelegation can be effective.


11/15

a)Good Delegators Are Good Managers:An effective manager must be an effectivedelegator. The converse is not necessarily

true.b) Managers Should Delegate Whenever Possible:The time that it might take to explain the taskto a subordinate or to train a subordinate todo something a manager is already capable ofdoing may be a greater burden to the managerthan the manager simply doing the job him-or herself.

c)Delegation Implies Diminished Control:

One of the reasons why managers are

reluctant,or refuse, to delegate is that theyfear losing control. To many managers,theword delegation seems to implydiminished control.


13/15

So from our discussion we conclude that,toget effective management in a long run,agood manager is required to delegate his tasks

and responsibilities to his subordinates so thatthe results obtained are at least as good orbetter than they would have been had theresponsibilities not been delegated.
