themselvcs by not delegating enough responsibility to subordinates says pro fossor with the Queens tnivcrsity business school Handing over responsibility involves some risk because managers then have

of Ontario in Bar rie Tuesday We are all pronc to the view that the peo ple who work for us are not capable enough to do as much ork as they actually can Prof Cooper said We all grow accustomed to thinking we are the only ones who can handle the pro blenis DELEGATE RESPONSIBILITY Prof Cooper whose area of specmlization is personnel management told The Ex aminer ltic scliiitial as tiesigiieu to

take the time to train subordinates therefore becoming even more busy and ha ving less time to ever do so Initially training subordinates is going to cause manager some problems but it is eSsentially an investment of time he said Prof Cooper said managers who do give so meone chance to do something are often surprised at their competency Managers must become more sensitized to this ever present
