W: That’s complicated．
M: And the third is leading．It includes motivating subordinates，directing others，selecting the most effective communication channels and resolving conflicts．

W: Can I understand this as "delegation is a ticket to fide free and have others to do your work"?
M: Not exactly．it is rather a means for managers to focus on their true functions，
