ABSTRACT: Effective delegation is a crucial skill for leaders and managers in today’s fast-paced work environment. However, the success of delegation hinges on one essential element: clear and concise communication. This research paper explores the significance of clear communication in delegating tasks, highlighting its impact on employee understanding, engagement, and motivation. The study reveals that unclear communication can lead to misunderstandings, errors, and decreased productivity, while clear communication fosters employee empowerment, motivation, and, ultimately, project success. The paper also provides strategies for enhancing delegator communication, including adapting communication styles to employee needs, utilizing technology, and establishing two-way feedback loops. The findings of this study have implications for leaders and managers seeking to enhance their delegation skills, improve employee engagement, and drive organizational success. By prioritizing clear and concise communication, leaders can unlock the full potential of delegation, empower their teams, and achieve desired outcomes.
