A team doesn't rise to what you say—they rise (or fall) to what you allow. In this episode, we cut through the noise and shine a light on a leadership truth most avoid: your culture is defined not by your words, but by your standards—and what you let slide.

This episode explores how tolerating low standards, even occasionally, creates a ripple effect that damages performance, trust, and team engagement. The discomfort of enforcement is where real leadership begins. When you commit to the hard work of living and upholding the standard—even when it's inconvenient—you transform from manager to leader.

It’s time to stop preaching values and start enforcing them. Accountability isn’t a punishment—it’s a gift. Set the tone. Hold the line. And watch your team rise to meet it.
