    Empowered employees are those who know they have the ability to accomplish tasks successfully, believe that their team, management, and organisation are behind them, and feel confident in them.
    Employee empowerment is a whole-company achievement.

    It's important to inform employees that they can contact you at any time with questions or for clarification on a particular component of their job. While empowered employees have the confidence to complete tasks independently, they also recognize the value of their company's support structure.
