Adi @ The Management Blog

Some good points there. A few others to consider:

- Be consistent - is this a one off decision or part of a plan to develop staff

- Be clear on your expected outcomes - for instance is personal development more important than the outcome of the task?

- Work through a few scenarios - what would happen if things go wrong?

- Monitor the process so you can see how they're progressing.
