As a leader, setting clear expectations is crucial to your success. If you set unrealistic expectations, you will quickly lose the trust and respect of your team. On the other hand, if you set clear, realistic expectations, you will empower and motivate your team to reach new heights.
In this podcast, Leon, Dean and Paul are back discussing the importance of setting effective expectations and how to do it effectively to motivate and inspire people to create a 100X culture. They also look at the different types of expectations and how they impact team performance.
So, how can you set clear expectations that will empower your team?
First, you need to understand the different types of expectations. There are four main types of expectation setting:
- Outcome Expectations: These are what we expect people to achieve, and they should be specific, measurable, and time-bound.
- Process Expectations: These are the expectations we set for how people do their work, and they should be clear, attainable, and aligned with our values.
- Behavioural Expectations: These are the expectations we set for how people behave, and they should be positive, respectful, and consistent with our culture.
- Attitude Expectations: These are the expectations we set for how people think and feel about their work. They should be realistic, positive, and aligned with our mission and values.
Learning to set Effective Expectations: The Expectation Scale
The expectations we set for people can either empower or inhibit them. Learning to set effective expectations is a crucial leadership skill, and it will empower your team to achieve more than they ever thought possible.

Remember the different expectations you can set: outcome, process, behavioural and attitude. If we do not, we will limit our people, burn them out, or create confusion that inhibits our culture and performance.
