October 10, 2025: Overcoming Delegation Pitfalls
What makes delegation so challenging for many leaders?

Why do some efforts to hand off work fall flat—or end up taking more time instead of less?

Delegation is one of the most powerful tools leaders have to empower their teams, develop talent, and free themselves to focus on higher-impact work. Yet, time and again, I see leaders that I am coaching struggle with how to do it WELL.

Join your peers in this interactive forum to explore the common pitfalls of delegation and how to avoid them. We’ll share real-world strategies that build confidence—both for the delegator and the team member—and discover practical ways to turn delegation into a driver of growth and collaboration. You’ll leave with fresh insights and ready-to-use techniques that can elevate your leadership impact right away.
