Explanation:
Refer to Subunit 2.3. Although "assigning work to others is an integral part of getting things done efficiently," managers often give themselves messages that are counterproductive. For example, a manager may say that it's just too much trouble to teach someone how to perform the task; it will be easier to do the job himself. Over time, of course, the manager will underperform, and his staff will not benefit from new skills and abilities.
