If you’ve ever left work frustrated, replaying the day in your head and wondering why your team can be great one day and completely fall apart the next, this episode is for you.

Inconsistency doesn’t just hurt results.

It drains your energy, shortens your patience, and follows you home.

Here’s the truth most leaders miss:

Inconsistency isn’t a people problem — it’s situational failure.

Situational failure is when someone knows the standard, knows the process, and has proven they can perform… but can’t reproduce that performance when pressure, pace, emotion, or conditions change.

Same person.

Same skill.

Different situation.

Different result.

And here’s the line to remember:

Inconsistency isn’t random. It’s just unmeasured.

Most leaders coach inconsistency like it’s an effort problem — “focus more,” “want it more,” “lock in.”

Elite leaders do something different. They study patterns.

Execution doesn’t fail mysteriously.

It fails predictably in the same situations over and over again.

Execution move:

Stop asking “Why didn’t they do it?”

Start asking “Under what conditions do they do it right?”

Look at one of your best people:

• When are they at their best?
• What structure is present?
• What disappears when execution breaks?

Because if you don’t know when your people perform best, you’re leading blind.

Consistency isn’t a personality trait.

It’s a leadership skill — and it’s learnable. love the show? like, rate, review and share
