Empowering Your Generals

"Many, many thanks for your Christmas gift - the capture of Savannah. When you were about leaving Atlanta for the Atlantic Coast, I was anxious, if not fearful... Now, the undertaking being a success, the honor is all yours; for I believe none of us went farther than to acquiesce... But what next? I suppose it will be safer if I leave General Grant and yourself to decide." - Lincoln

We can't do it all; frankly no one of us is talented enough even if we were 100 people. When we find someone who can get the job done better than us, we're well advised to let them do it. Better yet, to encourage them to do it.
