This practical book is useful reading for all managers who want to make use of their employees' talents and gain time to concentrate on the important aspects of their own jobs. The book describes in detail how to delegate and to whom and examines new trends, including performance coaching and empowerment. Delegation to groups and teams (including a section on Japanese style decision-making), monitoring and feedback and the importance of training in delegation, including giving junior managers a taste of high level responsibility is also covered. Case studies from top companies such as Rank Xerox and BP show why they needed delegation and how they made it work. The author also co-wrote "The International Manager".
