Set boundaries and establish accountability.
from The Gifts of Imperfection: Let Go of Who You Think You're Supposed to Be and Embrace Who You Are by Brené Brown
How to Apply This
-
Set clear boundaries and appropriate consequences
For example, if you have an employee who is slacking off, clearly inform them of the standards they are expected to meet and tell them that they will receive an official warning if they do not comply. -
Follow through on the consequences.
Otherwise, people will begin to dismiss your requests, even if they sound like threats or ultimatums.
