Key Lessons:
1) Get to know what your employees are experiencing by having touchpoints that allow space and time to better understand all of what they may be juggling.
2) Work on appropriately delegating tasks based on what you know about the areas of strength for each of your direct reports. Building relationship helps with this task!
