Delegating Made Easy with Microsoft Outlook

Learn to Use Tasks and Calendar Together in Microsoft Outlook to Delegate Better

Your success as a manager depends on the output of your direct reports. You are meant to ask questions like: are deadlines being met? Is the work completed to the standards expected? Are team members clear on the parameters of the assignment? The answers to these questions depend on your delegation and follow-up skills. Employees don’t want to be micromanaged, but they need a clear vision of the scope of the assignment, what a successfully completed assignment looks like, and dates for check-in meetings and the “drop dead” deadline. Planning and organization is the key to keeping employees, assignments, and projects on schedule. Microsoft Outlook makes delegation easier as your technology partner.
