As a project manager you know the issue: stress during a project. Time and cost pressure, guide your employees and be available for questions are just a few examples. To complete the project successfully and without stress, prioritization and delegation (please find our blog article about employee delegation here: I can do that too - Why staff delegation is important) will help you.
