I think the downvoting came from the bit about pushing responsibility on to others. Because that's exactly what great managers are supposed to do. You hire talented people and then you oversee their schedules while trusting them to do their job.
The only time you really need to step in is if something goes wrong. Maybe they are working in a wrong direction, maybe here is a conflict or an obstacle, or maybe they over/underperform.
