One of the most important lessons a business owner can learn is that you do not have to do everything, nor are you able to. Communicating your vision to others and empowering others to take an active role within the organization is important. Empowerment can only come if you effectively delegate projects and responsibilities to others. When delegating make sure the person you are giving responsibility to knows exactly what is expected and has the interests and skills to successfully complete the task.
Delegation is giving others the authority to act on your behalf, accompanied with responsibility and accountability for results. Three basic but major skills needed to be an effective delegator are:

1. Trust – You must believe in the people you delegate to.

2. Honesty – You must be honest with them in what your expectations are.

3. Communication – You must clearly articulate what you need done.
