Description

What happens when poor behaviour or performance goes unchecked at work?

In this episode, I cover the risks of working in a consequence-free environment, where team members face no real impact for their actions.

I share why “trying everything” often fails without accountability, and why feedback, formal warnings, or performance improvement plans can all be necessary tools.

Consequences aren’t about punishment – they’re about giving people a reason to change, and creating fairness for the whole team.
