Have you ever felt frustrated when a team member didn't follow through on a task?

After recently experiencing this myself, I had an "aha" moment about why this happens and how to prevent it.

Last week, I asked someone on my team to complete a task by Wednesday. When the deadline came and went without completion, I felt anxious and disappointed. As I reflected on the situation, I realized that I had made a request, but we never established a clear agreement.

I remembered a podcast by well-known coach, Steve Chandler, titled "Expectations vs. Agreements," which emphasizes how crucial it is to create specific, measurable agreements instead of relying on vague expectations.

There really is a distinction, even with employees – you’ll be amazed at how well it works!

If you’re facing similar issues in your team dynamics, listen to this episode, and make sure to grab the link to Steve’s podcast in the show notes!

When you start implementing this more accountable approach to making agreement, you’ll see improved communication and follow-through in your projects!
