In this episode, Andrea highlights the issue of double standards and their impact on your team. He talks about why double standards kill culture and how to prevent double standards from happening, talking about what you can do as a leader to foster a positive and respectful culture for all. KEY TAKEAWAYS Double standards occur when different sets of principles are applied to similar situations, particularly in regards to behaviour. Double standards erode trust in leadership and demoralise teams. Define clear behavioural expectations for your entire team. Leaders have to adhere to the highest standard of behaviour, leading by example always. Organisations can find it difficult to focus on behaviours, instead favouring performance and short-term goals. Creative an environment where people feel like they can come to you to talk about poor behaviour. Reward the right behaviours in your team, don’t take it for granted. BEST MOMENTS "Bad behaviour is bad behaviour, no matter who does it” “Double standards really kill culture” “Leaders must model the behaviour they expect from their team” VALUABLE RESOURCES Like the show?
