In Charge: Lesson 2

Delegation and Trust

Why do some managers get more done with a team — while others end up doing everything themselves? It's not about being capable. In this lesson, you'll explore what delegation really means and why most people get it wrong. You'll step inside a busy hospital ward, sort real scenarios to find out what delegation actually looks like, and identify the six barriers that stop people from handing work over well. Then you'll run a shift of your own — and find out what your choices cost and what they earned.

Why This Matters

Every team has more to do than one person can handle. The people who stand out are the ones who know how to share the work well — not just pass it off. This lesson gives you the skills to understand what real delegation looks like, identify the barriers that get in your way, and make confident decisions about tasks, people, and accountability — even when things don't go to plan.
