Answer to Question 1

Explanation: 1. It is important for the delegate to make sure the time line and expectations are clearly defined,
and he or she may opt to outline the specifications in writing. Accepting all aspects of the task
is incorrect because the delegate has the option to negotiate for those aspects of a task the
individual feels can be accomplished. Assuming the delegator as mentor is incorrect because
the delegate should never assume anything. Sharing responsibility is incorrect because
accepting delegations means the delegate accepts full responsibility for the outcomes and the
benefits or liabilities associated with a task.
