Independence and responsibility

When individuals have little independence or little decision-making power, but are given major responsibilities, this can lead to tensions and damage the social atmosphere of the company. You must therefore take care to delegate tasks where the level of independence matches the level of responsibility. Do not ask a colleague to be responsible for a decision that you have imposed.

Explain why you have chosen them and not someone else by mentioning some of their skills. For example: “You have several years’ experience in this sector and you have organisational skills”.

Set out the importance of the project as a whole. This will allow them to understand why you are asking them to carry out a particular task and motivate them at the same time. To return to our example situation: “I am asking you to set up this new activity for older people, because we have a lot of requests from them and this development would allow us to stand out from other care homes”. Another example: “Adding this niche would be very beneficial for our brand image and revenue”.

Finally, ask them what they think and negotiate any potential points that are a problem for them.
