Timeboxing. When you delegate something, provide a time box. People either lean expeditious (ie. make sure you include logging, tests, robust error handling, take your time with it) or perfectionistic (ie. I trust you to write great code, try to timebox it to under a day, send up a PR at the end of the day with your WIP, you don't need test coverage for this, etc.). It's one or the other. More or less bucket people and then coach them on it. Also, try to put them on projects that benefit from their approach.
