A Correct answer
Explanation

Effective delegation REQUIRES feedback channels so the delegator can monitor progress without micromanaging. Statement 2 is wrong - delegation must be transparent so others know who has authority. Statement 3 is wrong - the delegatee's discretion boundaries MUST be specified to avoid role ambiguity. Only statement 1 is essential.
