▪ Extends results from what a manager can do himself to what he can control
(accountability)
▪ Provides time for the manager to engage in management activities (their
primary responsibility) rather than being involved in technical activities
▪ Provides opportunity for the development of subordinates, increasing their
skill, knowledge, and competency
▪ Provides internal task-oriented motivation for personnel working on the
project
▪ Places responsibility for decisions at the proper level in the organization
where the relevant information and competency is located
