Okay, so we've worked out what to delegate.
matched
Now we need to do the delegating.
matched
How would you do this?
matched
Um, I think I'm the same.
matched
I think this might be a very English way of doing it.
matched
Um Yeah, you there there are some ways you could do it more directly.
matched
These to me sound more like what a manager would say.
matched
Like I'm making you responsible for or I'm handing this over to you.
matched
Um they're quite direct and as to say I think our work culture is often quite indirect, so I'm not sure I would feel comfortable.
matched
Just saying that to my colleagues.
matched
If I was a manager I probably would because they're expecting me to do that.
matched
Yeah, so it's all about giving clear instructions.
matched
Um let's listen to our BBC colleagues, Sean and George, again.
matched

matched

matched
Um, give me a shout if you have any questions.
matched
That just means ask me if you've got any questions.
matched
Next time we'll talk about what to do and say when you don't understand something at work.
matched
See ya then.
