Great or UNgreat Expectations with Melanie Taylor and Jenny Barkan

Send us Fan MailWe welcome Melanie and Jenny back to the Business Building Blocks Podcast. In all of our programs, we start by setting expectations for how we behave because this is a vital step for creating teams who communicate and argue well. However, it has also been said that Expectations are the killer of joy! How can something so vital also be a joy killer?? Join us in our conversation as we discuss the limitations, boundaries, and helpful tips to getting your expectations just right! We also have a VERY special guest appearance by Ryan, my 5-year-old! He helps us illustrate in real time how clearly defining success, being realistic with your expectations, and holding accountability with empathy will help you keep your joy even when they’re not always met perfectly! Kristina: https://www.kristinaschmitt.ca/Jenny: https://www.jennybarkan.com/Melanie: https://melanietaylorconsulting.com/ To register for an upcoming Delving into Difficult Discussions Program where you can learn how to set and maintain expectations with your team!For more information on Thrive: A Leadership Journey: https://humaningmadeeasier.com/thrive-a-leadership-journey/ For more information on Delving into Difficult Discussions: https://humaningmadeeasier.com/delving-into-difficult-discussions/ #accountability #leadership #leadershipdevelopment #newleader #leadershiptraining #entrepreneur #catholicleader #workinggenius #teamwork #manager #results  ✨ Introducing Smooth Start: The New Hire Success Kit A simple, proven framework to help leaders bring new hires up to speed in 90 days without adding more work to your calendar. 👉 Get the Smooth Start Kit — Only $97📅 Ready to talk about how to build that kind of culture in your team or family?
