If you delegate tasks, you create followers, if you delegate authority , you create leaders

About This Quote

When you delegate tasks, you create followers, if you delegate authority , you create leaders. In both of these quotes, there is a subtle message about the power of delegation. In the first quote, the speaker is saying that the power to create followers is in the hands of those who delegate tasks. It is a situation of “the more things you delegate, the more people will follow you.” This shows that by delegating tasks and authority, people will become dependent on your decisions and take your lead.

In this case, the speaker is showing that people will voluntarily follow you if they know that they are not in charge or responsible for their own lives. In the second example, the speaker says that when you give others authority, they become leaders. The meaning of this quote highlights how great leaders can make great decisions on behalf of their followers. This means that when someone has the ability to do something well and to make an impact on their environment, they can take charge and influence others to act in ways that will benefit them all.
