Infographic: How to get better at delegating tasks

How to be a more efficient leader: 5 tips CXOs need to keep their leadership goals in sight throughout their management career. Here's how.

Successful business leaders and managers don't take on more work than everyone else; instead, they build teams that they are comfortable delegating work to and entrusting it will get done, according to a recent infographic from Headway Capital. 

The research backs up this claim: CEOs skilled in delegating generate 33% greater revenue than those with low or limited delegating skills, and also created more jobs, a Gallup poll found. However, more than 85% of managers said they should delegate more, but are held back by feelings of guilt, habits, or a lack of trust, other research said.
