Daniel Doubrovkine suggests inspiring leads to give away parts of their job responsibilities to free up their time and achieve their company's mission and vision. He recommends leads ask their direct reports what they are great at and what they would do with more free time, and how that could impact the company. This approach allows leads to identify tasks that eat up time without high impact, so their reports can take them over and the leads can focus on areas with more strategic impact.
