🐾 When no one’s looking…

Do you know what your team is doing when you aren't looking?

When no one’s around, Oscar knows it’s treat time 🍪. But in the workplace, what happens when managers aren't watching? It all comes down to clear expectations, consistent processes, and trust.

🐾 𝗦𝗲𝘁 𝗰𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀: If your team doesn’t know what success looks like, they’ll make their own assumptions. Be specific about goals, timelines, and outcomes.

🐾 𝗖𝗵𝗲𝗰𝗸 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀: Regular check-ins and systems for tracking progress help keep everyone aligned without making anyone feel stifled or micromanaged.

🐾 𝗕𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝘀𝘁: When you trust your team’s work ethic and judgment, they’re more likely to rise to the occasion—even when you’re not there.

The best teams thrive because they know what's expected, have the support they need, and feel empowered to deliver. After all, no one can be everywhere all the time.
