What you'll learn
How to delegate the way each person needs, not how you would
See why handing off work the way you’d want to receive it leads to misunderstandings and rework.
How to tell what each person needs to feel clear
Some people need the why, some the details, some who it affects and some the goal.
How to hand off your next assignment so it comes back right
Rewrite one assignment for one person on your team, so it comes back closer to what you had in mind.
Why this topic matters
You explained it, they nodded, and what came back wasn’t what you asked for. Now you’re both frustrated, and the rework costs time and energy on both sides. Each person needs different context to do their best work: the why, the goal, the specifics or who it affects. The context you share matters more than how you phrase it. In 45 minutes with Q&A, you’ll learn the four work patterns and how to match your direction to each person.
