Ron, great post! I have always struggled with delegation as a leader, but I agree that delegation has to be wrapped in a strategy. Most of the delegation I did early on was like throwing the scraps that I didn't want to others instead of inviting them to the table and asking them to participate in the meal. I learned that if people are going to feel truly valued, they are going to need something more to bite into than just breadcrumbs from my to do list.
