How Do You Respond to Expectations?

In this episode, I will introduce you to one of my favorite tools in my business, The Four Tendencies framework for dealing with expectations.  How we deal with expectations, our own and those of others has a significant impact on our business and personal lives.  Some of us always go the extra mile for others but let ourselves down on a regular basis and others are the exact opposite. Knowing our own tendency and that of our clients, our team members, and even our friends and family members can make the difference between referral business, testimonials, and long-term relationships and negative reviews, disappointment, and frequent turnover.  This framework is taken from the book, “The Four Tendencies” by Gretchen Rubin. And in this episode, I will explore each one: Upholder, Questioner, Obliger, and Rebel, and how they impact our ability to meet expectations.  The information I share will center around the common challenges each tendency faces, as well as their unique strengths. By the end of this episode, you'll have a deeper understanding of your own tendency and how it influences your interactions with others and your approach to meeting expectations.  There are 5 important questions at the end and an invitation to DM me on Linked In or Instagram to let me know what you think MY tendency is and to share yours!  Don’t forget to grab the worksheet that summarizes each of the Four Tendencies to use in your business and with your team, here:  https://bit.ly/four-tendencies-guideTo go deeper after listening: 1.
