Today's episode is focusing on workplace inconsistencies and how we can reduce and eliminate them. Whether it's inconsistencies within the employee handbook, enforcement of policies and procedures, or inconsistency with getting work done at the time, quality, attention expected, and for the intended purpose—inconsistency unravels the fabric of relationships (professional and personal).

Inconsistency causes a breakdown in trust. Trust is built on consistency.

We share two real-life workplace examples of two employees facing work environments and managers who are inconsistent. In one scenario we examine and address inconsistent training and policies. In a second scenario we examine and address the inconsistent nature of a manager and their inconsistent follow-through, techniques, practices, and more.

We share suggestions on how to handle these, similar, and other issues in your workplace. We address some management areas where senior leaders need to pay close attention to, and we share a list of workplace "no-no's" where inconsistency rears its ugly head and bites you.

Last, but definitely not least, we shout out some amazing professionals and their businesses:
