Begin by asking yourself, “What am I doing right now that could be done by someone else?” Once you’ve answered that, ask, “Who should I begin to equip to do this?” Once you’ve identified who that is, sit down with the person and share your game plan. Then start training him or her. And let the rest of the team know what you are doing. This does two things: prepares them to accept someone else doing this role, and models the process that they should also be doing with others.
