The scale is used to determine the extent to which people can cope with the delegating of jobs and transferring parts of their own responsibilities to subordinates; the extent to which they can delegate control over another part of the work; the extent to which they utilise the ability to identify the tasks to be delegated; whether they can communicate to subordinates, in a clear and comprehensible way, improvements which are necessary to perform both routine and non-routine tasks. The extent to which they can precisely define the objectives and scope of the delegated tasks, and whether they show confidence in the competence of subordinates.
