@vusithembekwayo The art of delegation stands as a cornerstone of effective leadership. For a businessman, mastering the delicate balance of entrusting time and responsibilities to the right hands is not merely a strategic choice; it is a testament to astute leadership and the key to sustained growth and innovation. One of the fundamental aspects of successful delegation is the allocation of responsibilities based on individual strengths. Just as a skilled artisan is entrusted with a particular design element, employees are assigned tasks aligned with their expertise, skills, and passions. This targeted delegation not only ensures that each task is handled competently but also fosters a sense of empowerment among employees. When individuals are entrusted with responsibilities that resonate with their abilities, they are more likely to invest their energy, creativity, and dedication into their work. Furthermore, effective delegation liberates a businessman’s time, allowing them to focus on high-level strategic planning, decision-making, and envisioning the future trajectory of the company. By entrusting operational tasks to capable hands, a businessman can channel their energy into innovation, exploring new markets, nurturing client relationships, and steering the company toward uncharted avenues of growth. This strategic vision is essential for staying ahead in the ever-evolving business landscape.

Transcript

By the way, my assistant is tier. You've met her Sabrina. She is painful to me. But let me tell you what causes the pain between my assistant and I. So I go what's important and what's no, what's urgent and what's not. If it's not urgent and not important, I employ someone to do it. If it's not urgent better important, I delegate it. If it's not important better it's urgent, what do you think I do then? I fight with my assistant about it. Because in her mind, everything that's urgent is important. That's her job. In my mind, knowing what's urgent and important is what is. And typically what happens is it ends up in her best. Then I only focus my time on the stuff that's important and urgent. Then I rank the question, what are the things that I've gotta do to keep the current business running to make sure that we meet our business plan? Typically, 20% growth rank. And what are the things I've gotta do that grow the business more than 20%? And I only focus my time here. When we were in crisis mode during COVID, I spent a lot more time here. No, rebuilt tier business, got lieutenants, got people doing the right stuff. I spend time here.
