Someone is unhappy about something.
So SPD leadership throws up their hands.
They'll never be satisfied.
Why bother trying?
But here's,
What belief misses?
The OR's dissatisfaction is a signal.
It's information.
It's telling you that something is broken.
When you dismiss the signal as inevitable, when you decide the OR is just unreasonable, you cut off the feedback loop that could drive improvement.
You poison the relationship.
Once SPD decides the OR will never be satisfied and the OR decides that SPD will never be reliable, you get an adversarial dynamic.
Both sides stop trying.
Both sides blame the other.
Nobody solves the underlining problem and the belief that the OR will never be satisfied guarantees that they will never be satisfied.
Belief four, we're doing the best we can with what we have.
That one sounds humble, hardworking, realistic.
What it actually means is we've accepted dysfunction as normal.
When the best we can is the ceiling, you stop asking what excellence will look like.
You stop imagining what might be possible with different resources, different systems, different approaches.
