Ask your manager to delegate the tasks that you are unable to accomplish to other employee

Avoid stress and overwhelming of your team

If you have a team of equally skilled specialists and a task that should be delegated to one of them, there is a question who it will be better to assign this task to. The answer is simple. By delegating additional task to that employee who is already overloaded with current work, you will make him feel stress and overwhelming and can decrease his productivity. So, select the employee who is less busy at the moment and has less urgent or important tasks in his/her To Do List and delegate a new task to him.

"Tracking employees' load" To Do List

• Before delegating a new task, be careful and don't hurry up just to get rid of this task
• Track the number of tasks that each employee has and compare their importance and time that each one need to spend on them
• Delegate the task to the person who is less loaded at the moment and in the near future
• Use software to track employees' task lists and assign the task to less loaded team member
