Hi First name
 
No one you hire can read your mind. 😅 If you have expectations of your team, it is your responsibility to communicate them.

As with any relationship, unspoken expectations often lead to disappointment because we rely on the other person to figure out what we expect from them.  And it rarely works out that way. 
 
The same goes for your team; it's important to communicate your expectations clearly through the clarity you provide.
 
This doesn't mean you have to coddle anyone or repeat yourself constantly, but it does mean you need to set a standard and provide the necessary resources for your team to succeed.
Let's review some examples to help you shift your perspective.

Do you see how these unspoken expectations can cause a gap, First name / friend?
 
Unspoken expectations do not give the other person an opportunity to meet the need. As a leader, it is your responsibility to be proactive in your approach by establishing clear expectations and providing predictability in the scope of work and your company's standards.
 
By setting a mostly predictable routine and flow for daily, weekly, and monthly responsibilities, team members can better understand what is expected of them and take ownership of their work. 
 
We help leaders communicate clear standards by improving their hiring, training, and company resources. ⬇️
 
Our signature workflow discovery process is a great starting point for achieving clarity in scope and developing predictability in your team's individual and collaborative workflow.
