Detailed explanation-1: -Managers who fail to delegate will not have sufficient time to devote to each of their primary responsibilities. Moreover, they will not be able to spend quality, one-to-one time with their staff. These issues could lead to demotivated teams and a lack of productivity.
Detailed explanation-2: -The repercussions of poor delegation are wide ranging: Management and leaders are stressed and overwhelmed; Team members lack motivation and morale; While the organisation suffers, due to low productivity and high staff turnover.
Detailed explanation-3: -Pushing too many tasks If the team is not given enough time to complete a task, they might feel overwhelmed, which is an important sign of improper delegation. This management style often results in work piling up and ultimately creating more problems than it solves.
