Delegating, they say, is an art that's difficult to master. It's the thin line between delegating nothing to delegating EVERYTHING that matters.
Sure we've come across bosses who like to have their minions do every single thing and scoot off home at the stroke of six.
The worse though are those who insist on having everything their way.
So even if they do assign you a task, they'll probably spend 20 minutes telling you just how you should do it, follow it up with the same long list of instructions via email and then finally a telephone call where you'll get to hear about it all over again before of course being told how you didn't get it right. Sigh!
