Randy Gravitt argues that unclear expectations are a leader's responsibility, not their team's failure. When mistakes happen, the answer isn't shame but better training, coaching, and clearer guidance next time.
A, I got to be secure in the way I'm thinking about me. So let's start with self-leadership. I think that's the, uh, I'm the problem, right? I mean, I mean, at the end of the day, I am the— you got to look yourself in the mirror and ask yourself, what's it like to be led by me? And I would even say, what's it like to be loved by me? Because you got not just work, you got family stuff, and we'll probably talk about that a little bit. But, but, but I think so many times the answer to your question is, I've got to make sure that I've created Clear expectations. I've got to make sure I've created accountability for the person who maybe, maybe, you know, maybe it's not my fault per se. The person made the mistake. But truthfully, if I've not been clear on the expectations and then I'm frustrated with them, that actually is on me. And I don't need to feel shame about that. I just need to change my behavior and go back and say, I've got to do some training here and I've got to do some coaching here.
