329. Don’t Feed Your People’s Delusion: Embracing cause and effect

One of the more difficult aspects of leadership is managing your people’s expectations. You’re in the hot seat, and your team will judge your leadership based on whether or not they feel as though you’ve met their expectations.

So, what do you do when your people’s expectations are unrealistic? Or irrational? Or even delusional? As a No Bullsh!t Leader, I know you try to be as open, clear, and direct with your people as you possibly can… 

At times, though, you’ll be faced with a choice: to either feed your people’s delusion, in order to keep the peace, or to manage their expectations with a solid dose of reality.

In this episode, I outline a few examples of cause and effect that we can all relate to, and I give some guidance on how to lead your people when they lose perspective on the cause-and-effect relationships that affect them.
