Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The three steps in the delegation process are assigning specific duties or tasks, granting authority, and creating responsibility or accountability. This involves clearly defining the task or job to be done, providing the necessary resources and authority to accomplish it, and holding the employee responsible for the results. Option B best captures these steps. Option A is partially correct but does not include assigning specific duties or tasks. Option C is incorrect because creating accountability should come after assigning responsibilities. Option D is incorrect because creating responsibility comes before granting authority. Option E is incorrect because the order of the steps is not accurate.
