  • 362: Delegate with Confidence in 4 Simple Steps with Dallas Burnett

    362: Delegate with Confidence in 4 Simple Steps with Dallas Burnett
    Jun 17 2025

    Do you feel like you’re drowning in your task list?


    You know delegation is important. You know your team wants to contribute. But still, something holds you back—whether it’s fear of mistakes or the lack of time to explain things.


    You don’t have to stay stuck in this cycle.


    Joining me today is Dallas Burnett. Dallas is the founder and CEO of Perforam and author of "Lift," "MOVE!" and "Caveman Delegation," He is a performance management expert dedicated to transforming how organizations unlock potential. He partners with senior executives to design unique people systems that reduce turnover, boost productivity, and increase profits.


    In this episode, Dallas dives deep into the common fears that prevent managers from delegating, such as the fear of failure and the belief that it’s quicker to do things themselves.


    He introduces his simple yet effective “Caveman Delegation” model, a four-step process that helps managers confidently delegate tasks, processes, and outcomes without micromanaging.


    Plus, in the extended episode available to Podcast+ members, Dallas discusses how tools like the Enneagram can help you better understand your team’s personalities—so you can delegate in a way that sets everyone up for success.
