Procedure Delegation 3: Make resources available

Provide the employee with all the necessary resources: money, material, tools, information, instructions, authorizations (powers, permissions, authorizations, rights, authorization, backing…). this is about being allowed). The term “competencies” is often used for this. However, competence can also mean ability or skill, which is why we use the term resources here).

Resources also include help. This must be well dosed.

“You don’t help people if you do for them what they can do for themselves.”

Abraham Lincoln

The resources also include informing third parties which areas of work have been delegated to whom. This protects the person taking on the task from having to explain themselves if others are surprised that they are carrying out the task.
