"The most common management style is
seagull management. A manager gives you a task, disappears, and then only
returns when you make a mistake—they fly in, make a lot of noise, dump on
you, and then fly out. If you read Donna Genett’s book on delegating, these
ineffective flights will not be necessary."

Ken Blanchard, co-author,
The One Minute Manager®

"Delegation is one of the most important skills a

Yourself! is a wonderful reminder of how rewarding it can be when
even the most complicated tasks are successfully delegated and completed."
