Common barriers to effective delegation

• The project manager has a personal interest to the task or think she can do it better or faster herself. In this case, she must force yourself to let go and have confidence in the other individuals. She's under stand the other people may not do things exactly the way she would.
• The project manager lacks confidence in the capability of others to do the work. In this case, you should be sure that he does the capabilities, potential, and limitations of each member of the project team so that he could select the most appropriate person for each task.
• The project manager is afraid that he will lose control of the work and not know what is going on. In this case, he should set up a system for regularly monitoring about a waiting progress toward the expected results.
• Team members fear criticism for mistakes or lack self-confidence. In this case, the project manager has to show confidence in each individual, offer regular encouragement, and understand the mistakes are opportunities for learning rather than occasions for criticism.
