I say I was taught it—it was more like my first boss saying to me “look, if you mark things as urgent/important then it helps you see which tasks you should prioritise”. I don’t think he mentioned delegation as I wouldn’t have had anyone to delegate to!

Sometimes you can delegate things to your boss—e.g. by declining work he tries to delegate to you (say “I’m too busy”).
