Setting Clear Standards

Setting clear standards is essential for shaping behavior within a group. This involves simple actions or sentences that establish expectations. For example, Damien, the rugby tour guide, set a standard for punctuality by introducing the 'walk of shame' for latecomers on the bus. Similarly, Peter, a leader, set a standard for completing agreed actions by following up on them in team meetings.
