Episode 369: Are You Expecting Too Much?

Are your expectations driving performance or quietly undermining it? In this episode, Drs. Drew Brannon and Gabby Caviedes explore how leaders can unintentionally create pressure that harms confidence, motivation, and results by expecting too much. They unpack the difference between healthy high standards and unrealistic demands, the impact excessive expectations have on individuals and teams, and the warning signs that something is off. You'll also gain practical strategies to recalibrate expectations, support growth, and lead in a way that challenges people without setting them up to fail.
