Let’s talk about growing your team and your impact through delegation.
Read Time: 3 Minutes
If you’re leading in ministry or the nonprofit world, chances are you’re juggling a lot. The mission is meaningful and the needs are endless. You care deeply. That’s what makes you so good at what you do.
But you don’t have to carry it all on your own.
Why Delegation Matters
Delegation isn’t about doing less. It’s about doing what matters most. It’s a way to:
-
Focus on the work only you can do
-
Equip others to lead and grow
-
Make space for strategy, rest, and renewal
This is how you lead with longevity.
When you hold on to everything, you limit what’s possible—for you and your team. But when you delegate with intention, you create space for growth on all sides.
Here’s a quick look at how delegation can shift the way your team and mission operate:

So Where Do You Start?
Delegation can feel overwhelming, especially if you’ve been doing it all for a long time. But it doesn’t have to be all-or-nothing.
Start with one task.
Every step you take toward healthy delegation creates more space for you to lead with clarity, energy, and purpose.
Look for:
-
A task that drains your time or energy
-
Something someone else could handle with the right guidance
-
A project you keep putting off because you’re too busy
Delegation isn’t about letting go of your calling. It’s about making sure you can live it out for the long haul.
