You know that feeling when something just clicks??
Like when you experience a team transform from going-through-the-motions to lighting up with energy?
This magic happened as a supervisor in a Tennessee manufacturing plant handled what could have been just another mistake. Instead of the usual "fix it and move on," he asked his team member, "What can we learn from this?"
That simple question changed everything. The situation's polarity shifted instantly from negative to positive. The team member's reaction transformed from "Am I going to lose my job?" to "How can I grow?"
Here's what fascinates me: joy predicts performance.
My friend Josh Freedman, CEO of 6seconds.org, discovered this through his research. Not metrics. Not deadlines. Not even financial incentives.
Joy is the number one predictor of high-performing teams.
Let that sink in for a moment.
When's the last time you experienced real joy at work?
Not just satisfaction, but genuine joy? https://www.workpositive.today/blog/joy-infuses-a-growth-mindset-into-your-culture

Leaders avoid crucial conversations for a variety of reasons:
A toxic person is like garbage that you put out on the porch in August and hope it smells better in 30 days.
Hope is essential to growing people and profits.
Hope isn’t a strategy for dealing with toxic people.
It’s ironic that Jeff infuses fun in work culture and yet his one thing to do sounds like anything but fun.
Crucial conversations are necessary to create a positive work culture where fun prevails.
Identify that toxic individual in your company. You know who they are.
Develop a concrete plan to address their disruptive behavior. You know what it is.
Follow the necessary process to do the right one thing.
