IMPACT, LEARN
TO DELEGATE.”
John C. Maxwell

h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /

7 TRUTHS
ON
DELEGATION
h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /
DELEGATION
IS RISKY
TRUTH #1
h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /
IF YOU DON’T
EMBRACE THE
RISK OF
DELEGATION,
YOU HUG THE
TREE OF
STAGNATION
h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /
YOU MUST
ACCEPT THE
RISK THAT
COMES WITH
LETTING GO,
AND PLACING
BETS ON YOUR
PEOPLE
h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /

h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /
DELEGATION
IS A
CONVEYANCE
OF POWER
TRUTH #2
h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /
WHEN YOU
TRANSFER
YOUR ASSET
AND PLACE
THAT POWER
INTO YOUR
TEAM
h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /
YOU ALLOW
THE
ASSEMBLY
LINE TO MOVE
WITH MORE
SPEED AND
GREATER
CERTITUDE
h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /
THAT PUTS
THE POWER
IN THE
COLLECTIVE
AND NOT THE
INDIVIDUAL
h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /
DELEGATION
IS A
TRANSFER OF
TRUST
TRUTH #3

BY
DELEGATING,
YOU ARE
IMMEDIATELY
PLACING
TRUST INTO
WHOEVER IT
IS YOU

h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /
AND THAT
IN ITSELF
IS A RISK
h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /
TRUST
CREATES
TRUST. AND
WITHOUT
DELEGATION,
YOU WON’T
CREATE IT IN
ANY
DIRECTION
h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /
TRUST IS A
RENEWABLE
RESOURCE

TRUST
ENABLES
SPEED AND
ACCELERATION
h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /

GIVE TRUST,
YOU EARN

EMPOWERS
YOUR TEAM TO
MOVE FASTER
h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /
DELEGATION
CREATES A
BETTER
PRODUCT
TRUTH #4
h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /
THE ABILITY
TO SPLIT THE
LABOR THAT
CREATES AND
MANAGES THE
PRODUCT
h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /
COMES AS A
BENEFIT OF
DELEGATION
h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /
FEEDBACK
IS THE
SECRET TO
IMPROVING
YOUR
PRODUCT

THERE’S NO
BETTER WAY
TO

HONESTY
FROM YOUR
TEAM

DELEGATED
TRUST
ENHANCES
COMPETENCE
AND
CONFIDENCE
IN YOUR
PEOPLE’S
ACTIVITIES
h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /
DELEGATION
FOSTERS
COLLABORATION
TRUTH #5
h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /
YOU MUST
FORCE
YOURSELF TO
COLLABORATE
WITH THOSE

WITH AND TO
h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /
IF YOU HAVE
TRUST IN WHO
OR WHAT YOU
DELEGATE TO,
AND WHO YOU
COLLABORATE
WITH,
h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /
IT WILL
HELP YOU
SEE THE
THINGS YOU
DON’T SEE
h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /
DELEGATION
BREAKS DOWN
BOUNDARIES
AND CREATES
RELATIONSHIPS
TRUTH #6
h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /
RESISTING
DELEGATION
CREATES AN
ARTIFICIAL
BOUNDARY
BETWEEN
YOURSELF
AND YOUR
TEAM
h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /
DELEGATION
BREAKS
THROUGH
THAT
ISOLATION
AND BUILDS
ON A
RELATIONSHIP
h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /
DELEGATION
HAS TO
INCLUDE
MORE THAN
GIVING
POWER
h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /
YOU HAVE TO
BE WILLING
TO LET GO
OF POWER
h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /
DELEGATION
TURNS TEAM
MEMBER INTO
LEADERS
TRUTH #7
h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /
THREE WAYS
TO THINK
ABOUT
DELEGATION
TO CREATE A
LEADER OUT
OF
YOURSELF
h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /
#1
DELEGATION
IS NOT
ALWAYS
GIVING
SOMEONE A
CHECKLIST
h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /
WHEN YOU
DELEGATE,
THINK OF IT
AS ITS OWN
FORM OF
INNOVATION
h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /
#2
DELEGATION
IS
OPTIMIZATION
h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /
TIME. MAKE
MORE MONEY.
SAVE MORE
MONEY. THAT’S
OPTIMIZATION
h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /
#3
DELEGATION
IS
REPLICATION
h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /
WHEN YOU
FIND
SUCCESS,
DELEGATE TO
THE SUCCESS
UNTIL IT
CEASES TO
REPLICATE
h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /
DELEGATION
LETS YOU
LOOK
FORWARD TO
YOUR TEAM,
TO YOUR JOB,
OR TO YOUR
DAY TO DAY
h t t p s : / / w w w . g r a v y s o l u t i o n s . i o /
