Great leaders get the right info to the right people at the right time. They don’t hide behind the “it’s not my job” cliche. They don’t just “delegate this” and “delegate that” like a card dealer at a casino. They don’t just sit back in their throne, get manicures, and “review and approve”.  They don’t just passively collect “status and schedule” information. They don’t set ambiguous and indecipherable direction, and then change it at will whenever it suits their personal agenda. They don’t mandate the latest management “technique” after they read about it in a 2 page Harvard Business Review article.

If getting the right info to the right people at the right time requires a leader to generate some of the information him/herself, then they do it.

Delegating only works when the delegator works too. – Robert Half
