Exercise
Sort them - three columns
If your left column is nearly empty and your middle one nearly full: normal. Among the self-employed and in management that is the rule. It does not mean there is nothing here for you.
| What you did | Mechanical | Groundwork | Decision |
|---|---|---|---|
| Wrote the quote for Meier | Copying prices out of the list, formatting | Digging out comparable quotes from past years | What discount you give |
| Answered a complaint | — | Pulling together the delivery history and earlier replies | How accommodating you are |
| Checked six supplier quotes | — | Price, lead time, warranty into one comparison table | Who gets the order |
| Produced the monthly report | Merging figures from three exports | Flagging what stands out against last month | What is worth reporting |

You are not handing over the decision. You are handing over the groundwork.
Few tasks go to Claude whole. In the complaint, Claude pulls together the delivery history. How accommodating you are stays with you.
