Delegate Persistent Problems for Team Growth
Every team has that one persistent problem that everyone knows about but no one wants to address. Delegating this issue to a capable team member can turn a challenge into an opportunity for growth. Allow the assigned team member to develop their own solution, but make sure they know you are available for guidance. This not only empowers them to think creatively and take ownership of the solution but also builds their problem-solving skills and confidence.
Actionable Advice: Identify a problem everyone is aware of but nobody wants to tackle. Assign a member of your team to solve it in such a way that it doesn't recur. Let them come up with a solution themselves, but make yourself available to answer questions and provide guidance as needed. Let your team member know they can approach you if they encounter challenges or need clarification on any aspect of the task.
