There is a new web app coming inspired by the matrix that you could try - www.eisedo.com. This task manager will auto-prioritise your tasks based on urgency and importance.
In reply to your question, it's important to remember that the Eisenhower Matrix is a guideline to help you prioritise your tasks in the most productive way. Delegation isn't always something that your boss asks you to do - it can be you asking a friend or a family member to handle something for you.
If there's absolutely no way it can be delegated, then naturally the responsibility to complete the task falls on you. All the Matrix does is highlight the fact that your time would be spent more productively on tasks in the first two quadrants. It's down to your best judgement and analysis of your time and workload in conjunction with the use of the Matrix to decide whether you take it on yourself or delegate it.

Comment with your experience and recommendations :)
Personally, I've tried a variety of productivity tools to try increase my efficiency, and I would have to say my favourite is the Eisenhower Matrix. (I've linked a great article to it incase you haven't heard of it!)
I have saved lots of time as it helps me to decide which tasks to do first and which I don't need to do at all.
Have you tried it before? What did you think?

However, in some cases, there are tasks that do not contribute to achieving goals but do require immediate attention and you simply cannot delegate it to others. How do you address / prioritize this using Eisenhower Marix?
