IN THE ROOM #12 – Standards create safety.
Ambiguity doesn't just slow teams down - it creates anxiety. When people can't see the standard, they hesitate, second-guess, and self-protect.
Clear expectations don't constrain performance. They enable it.
The uncomfortable audit: where are your team's standards implied rather than defined - and who's silently struggling because of it?
Comment "Room" if your team would benefit from clearer performance standards.
