What are you EXPECTING vs INSPECTING?
from Big Dreams Great Teams® with Paula Maidens · host Paula Maidens
In this episode of Big Dreams Great Teams™, we dive into the vital distinction between Expectations and Inspections. High expectations are common, but true success lies in actively Inspecting and monitoring progress, because as the saying goes “You get what you INSPECT not what you EXPECT”.I talk about how business owners and entrepreneurs who are high performers often reach unconscious competence and in turn, when delegating tasks they often overlook the INSPECT part of setting and getting their EXPECTATIONS met. I also discuss how you shouldn’t be afraid of having high expectations as high-performing individuals will thrive when striving for lofty goals. This episode explains how focusing on clear Inspection and effective monitoring your team members will meet your expectations and achieve success and personal satisfaction. Listen in to this very practical episode packed with examples for your solutions for implementing “Inspection Points” such as Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to ensure your high expectations get consistently met.LINKS:Fundamentals of Leadership short courseBook a Dream Team Discovery CallConnect with me: Website:www.paulamaidens.com Instagram:@paulamaidensconsultingFacebook: @paulamaidensbuildingawesometeams
