Succeeding in Big Projects: What a 5-year-old can teach us about organization and delegation

In this blog post, I want to share a bit of a personal story in my experiences and lessons learned while moving this summer from our apartment into a new house. If you’ve moved before, you know that moving can be a huge undertaking. We moved from an apartment into a full house and even visualizing the new space and how to organize the move was already overwhelming to think about. However, by applying effective organization and delegation strategies, I was able to successfully move my family into our new house, with minimal fights overall (Win #1!).

It's not just about packing your belongings; it's about orchestrating the transition from one place to another. Surprisingly, the experience of leading my move team taught me valuable lessons about organization and delegation that shined some light on how I want to help guide you in your organizational and delegation strategies as well.

Let’s start by getting aligned on the official definition. Oxford's dictionary lists delegating as a process that "entrusts (a task or responsibility) to another person, typically one who is less senior than oneself."

In a way, this definition sounds amazing, but also scary at the same time! This business is our baby, how can we trust another person to be part of it? If you are coming from corporate, like I am, there is likely a KPI (Key Performance Indicator) or OKR (Objective and Key Result) that is associated with your team’s output and/or how much time and effort you are putting into the team. Here’s the thing, corporate made it easy for you.
