In this episode, Kirsty and Tienie discuss the importance of setting and managing expectations in leadership. They explore how time and assumptions can lead to miscommunication and share practical tips for fostering clear, collaborative conversations. By taking a few minutes to clarify expectations upfront, leaders can avoid issues down the line and empower their teams to succeed.

This audio was taken from our Linkedin LIVE video sessions which take place every Thursday at 12:30pm. Our next Linkedin LIVE is on the 26th September and we'll be talking about Leading With Clarity & Intention.
