An Important Aspect Of Setting Expectations As A Leader

Something We Often Forget

It is Extremely Important to set Expectations as a Leader.

It isn’t enough to have an “Idea” of what they are, you have to make sure everyone Knows the Expectations, and Lives by them in the workplace.

Many Leaders encounter Huge Problems because they aren’t Clear about their Expectations, or don’t ensure they are Maintained.

However, there is another Danger that Leaders must be aware of when it comes to Expectations.

I’m working with a group of individuals to design a program, and we were discussing how some of us (including me) would want to get to the highest possible levels in a program design.

(Yes, my general approach in areas I Study/Research — What’s the Best/Highest Level? How do I get There?)

We had a Realization though.

Just because “We” might Expect Ourselves to Aim and Hit the highest possible level, doesn’t mean “others” have ANY interest in doing that.

The Reality is that “most” people do NOT want to hit High Levels of the things they do.

The Vast Majority of people just want to be Good Enough or Acceptable at what they do.
