Understanding Deputizing: Definition, Benefits, and Examples
Deputizing refers to the act of assigning or delegating responsibilities or tasks to another person, usually a subordinate or a colleague, when one is unable to perform them personally. This can be done for various reasons such as lack of time, expertise, or availability. The person who is assigned the task is said to be "deputized" and is expected to carry out the task on behalf of the original assignee.
For example, if a manager is unable to attend a meeting, they may deputize one of their team members to represent them and provide an update on their behalf. In this case, the team member is being deputized to act as a proxy for the manager and provide the necessary information to the meeting attendees.
