Delegation brief

Most delegation fails in the handoff. This writes the brief that prevents the rework.

Write a delegation brief for a task I'm handing off.

Task: [WHAT NEEDS DOING]
Who's taking it: [their role + what they already know]
Deadline: [WHEN]

Include: the outcome (what "done" looks like, measurably) · context they need and where to find it · decisions they can make alone vs. must check with me · known traps · check-in points (max 2) · what I do NOT care about, so they don't polish it.
Keep it under 250 words. If it can't fit, the task needs splitting — tell me how.
