Description

Learn how to build high-performing teams by setting and enforcing clear standards.


The colourful expression "It's Easier To Rein In a Stallion Than To Flog a Donkey" gives you pretty much everything you need to know about talent management and team performance.


But it’s advice that's rarely heeded by leaders.


We spend an inordinate amount of time trying to get people to reach a level of performance that, quite often, they simply have no interest in achieving.


It sucks our time, our energy, and our will, and it makes every day feel a lot harder than it should be.


In this episode, I make the case for building talent, and creating a team where people are expected to meet the minimum acceptable standard… or find a less demanding job somewhere else.
