We want our leaders to not only empathize, listen and support our professional growth but make it really easy for us to succeed. To succeed, we need clearly articulated expectations. For Leaders to accomplish this, they need to describe what Rome looks like but be careful not to dictate how to get there. It is important to mention things that may get them in trouble. For example, unethical or illegal activities are not acceptable means to the end and need to be clearly avoided. Once we are clear what is expected of us, we can work with confidence towards the shared goals. Performance conversations are powerful motivators if handled with care and attention.

Thank you to those that voted in the poll!
