Episode notes

Alex recently had a tough and raw meeting with his leadership team. Some of his team members (and Alex too) were not completing certain tasks by their assigned due date and had to keep pushing the date further down. Alex realized that as a leader, you have to set the example and hold yourself accountable. On the call, Alex challenged himself and his team to keep each other accountable and to always keep pushing each other to a higher standard.

Key Takeaways:

Alex just got off of a really raw L10 meeting with his team.
Leadership starts with holding yourself accountable first.

Alex asked his team to hold him accountable so that the company could keep the same level of high standards.
Make sure you set the highest standards possible.
Tell people what you expect, because you get what you expect.
