In this episode of Expressions at Work, we explore one of the most underrated professional skills: managing expectations.

Many workplace problems don’t come from poor performance — they come from assumptions, overpromising, and misaligned timelines. In this episode, you’ll learn how experienced professionals protect trust and credibility by setting expectations early and adjusting them strategically.

You’ll hear real-world business expressions such as:

  • set realistic expectations
