When you authorize, entrust the whole thing to the other party, and at the same time give him enough power to make the necessary decisions.

Story: Confusing authorization of company A
Company A is a toy manufacturer under a private group company. Due to the expansion of the group company’s business scale, since 2001, the boss of the group company decided to hand over Company A to the general manager and management team hired by the company. . In the meantime, the company boss basically did not ask about the daily business affairs of the toy company. At the same time, he neither required the toy company’s management to report to the group company on a regular basis, nor did he make any clear requirements for the management’s business objectives. It is officially promised that if the company makes a profit, it will reward the management of the company. As for the specific reward amount and reward method, it is unclear. Moreover, the company has not formulated complete rules and regulations, and the general manager of the toy company is responsible for all purchases, production, sales and even finances. After two years of operation, by the end of 2003, problems appeared.
The boss of the company found that the production management of the toy company was chaotic, and the accounts were unclear. In the production, there were often phenomena such as the use of wrong materials, the wrong model, the high rate of defective products, and the loose production discipline of employees. Private companies take rebates, collect commissions from foreign companies, and process fees are not recorded in the accounts. At the same time, because the accounts are unclear, the boss and the management of the company have different opinions on whether the company is profitable. The boss believes that the company has invested tens of millions of yuan in the past two years without getting a return, which is due to poor business management. The management of the company believes that the company has reduced its losses and increased its profits in the past two years. The boss has broken the trust of the company's management and has not fulfilled his promise to reward the company's management.
Faced with the problems in the management of the company, the boss decided to take back all the management rights of the company, and he was responsible for the management of the company. As a result, the original management of the company felt that power was lost, and that the boss didn't trust him, was depressed, and spread some unfavorable news among the employees, causing the company to lose heart and run into trouble.
In this case, the boss of the group company originally intended to release himself from the daily operation and management activities of the enterprise through authorization, and mobilize the enthusiasm of employees, especially the management. Put the business management into trouble. The main reason is that the boss of the group company did not properly use the art of authorized management. At the beginning, it was arbitrary authorization, and the company did not match it in the system. Once it encountered a problem, it used a one-size-fits-all method to withdraw all authorizations. This led to chaos throughout the company.
The line borrowed from a certain movie is: authorization is confused, and the consequences are serious.
