Notes

Example: A writer delegates Printing & Binding at level 7 to his professional printer because, as a writer, he has no idea how the print process works.

The “seven levels of delegation” are borrowed from Management 3.0.

Rules / Constraints

“The inability to delegate is one of the biggest problems I see with managers at all levels.”
