Yep delegation works. It works especially well when it’s matched to the scope the person is capable of exercising competently at, and when the boundaries and context of delegation is crystal clear. I’ve seen mismatches on both sides fail - too little context, employee drifts off into niche useless work (eg: green light to rabbit hole on impactless pet project) or lacks the tools available to succeed (eg: missing stakeholder or path to achieve traction). Too few boundaries, employee goes for grand ambitious changes and gets upset when their expectations don’t match reality (because they weren’t realistically set by the manager).
