In other words,it is the process of sharing task with its corresponding authority with the subordinates. Delegation helps in establishing a pattern of authority between the superior and hi subordinates.  It is best means to motivate the employees without providing additional benefits and supports. It is important tools or element for the organizational success because, without delegation of authority, no one can perform their jobs or works as per the organizational requirement.

Allen," Delegation is the dynamics of management, it is the process a manager follows in dividing the work assigned to him so that he performs that part which only he because of his unique organizational placement, can perform effectively and so that he can get others to help him with what remains."

According to Douglas C. Baril, "Delegation refers to a manager's ability to share his burden with others. It consists of granting authority or the right to decision making in certain defined areas and charging the subordinates with responsibility for carrying through an assigned task.'
