    "I Expected Everyone to Be Me "

    What happens when a high-performer becomes a leader — and never adjusts their expectations?In Episode 1 of Built by Mistakes, host Skip Thompson takes you back to a pivotal moment in his career — a Sunday afternoon alone in the office, grinding away, getting madder by the minute that nobody else was there. What he didn't realize yet was that his frustration wasn't his team's failure. It was his.It wasn't until a leader at a motivational event he almost didn't attend said something that stopped him cold:"I fired and lost a lot of good people because I expected them to be me."That line changed everything.In this episode Skip gets honest about what it really means to lead people — and why the most dangerous thing a high-performer can do is become a leader without ever adjusting their standard.🌐 Website: builtbymistakes.com📧 Connect with Skip: [your email or contact page]🎙️ Built by Mistakes Podcast — Lessons in Leadership, Resilience and Growth
