With these things in mind let’s take a look at fifteen steps I use in effective delegation that will help you to develop your volunteers through action and cause you to be a master of delegation.
Here’s the first one:

1. Identify what you need to be doing. Let’s take a look at Acts 6: 2 one more time. “So the Twelve gathered all the disciples together and said, "It would not be right for us to neglect the ministry of the word of God in order to wait on tables.” The disciples were not too good to wait tables but this project was keeping them from what they needed to be doing. There are loads of good ideas and projects that keep us from doing the God inspired and directed projects, He has for us to do. I have come to realize that It’s more important that I train, guide, manage and recruit than teach, sing, perform and be the only person that the children identify with. The best thing I can do to grow is to allow others to be involved and not be a one man show.

Great step, I agree. As strange as it may seem does get over looked often by people. It is good to take the time to stop and identify.
