Delegation depends on . . .

• Like a four-legged table

  • Delegation depends on a quadruplet relationship

• So, the four pillars of delegation are

  • Authority
  • Responsibility
  • Reliability, and
  • Accountability

• All four must be in sync

  • Authority and responsibility are on one side of the coin

    • Reliability and accountability on the other

• You could say

  • "Auth x Resp = Rel x Acc"
