IPO Builder — Level 11 Leaders

IPO Builder

Level 11 Leaders
Delegation that sticks. Your team keeps coming back because they're missing one of three things: the right Information, clear Permission, or a defined Outcome. Build all three here — and the bouncing stops.

What are you delegating?

Start with the task. The more specific you are here, the better the rest of your IPO will be.

Information

What does your person need to know to make good decisions on this task — without coming back to you? This is everything living in your head that they don't have access to yet.

Think: if they made a wrong call, what information were they missing?

Permission

What decisions can they make on their own — no check-in required? Be explicit. If you don't define this, they'll default to asking you every time.

Give them as much rope as you can. The goal is for them to own this.

Be honest — if it's just "I like control over this," name it. Then ask yourself if that's really necessary.

A company-level filter ("Is this on-brand for us?") works better than a personal one. It removes the comparison to you.

Outcome

What does "done well" look like? Define it clearly enough that they know when they've nailed it — without checking with you.

This matters. If you can't define "good enough," you'll change every decision they make — and they'll stop making them.
