An essential part of being a good entrepreneur/manager/creator is recognizing when someone else can do something better than you can.
The art of delegation is found in the communication of your requirements:
Not enough guidance, and you won’t get what you need.
Too much, and you may as well do the work yourself.
A balance then: enough guidance to make your needs clear, but with plenty of room for a professional’s interpretation and vision.
You’ll know you got it right when the result is a pleasant surprise.
