On this episode of Hire A Millenial Virtual Assistant Podcast, John talks about why it is essential to have a virtual assistant. Also, John focuses on how effective leaders delegate tasks. Why it is important to delegate tasks
“To be a great leader, you have to learn to delegate well,” the Harvard Business Review (HBR) said. “One of the most difficult transitions for leaders to make is the shift from doing to leading.” Doing everything yourself will limit your business’s growth to the amount of time you can give to it, which is finite.” Simple solution? Hire a Virtual Assistant from the Philippines to free up your time.
“In the short term, you may have the stamina to get up earlier, stay later, and out-work the demands you face,” HBR said. “But the inverse equation of shrinking resources and increasing demands will eventually catch up to you, and at that point, how you involve others sets the ceiling of your leadership impact.”
In this episode, While it may seem difficult, we’ll talk about how to evaluate impact and what requires you to embrace an unavoidable leadership paradox: You need to understand that you need to be essential and less involved,” HBR said. When you justify your hold on work, you’re confusing being involved with being essential.”
