Working relationships with leaders are complex and can range from friendships to disdain. While some leaders may be ineffective yet capable of improvement, toxic leadership creates a fear-based culture, damaging teams over time. Employees must assess whether conditions permit growth or if it is time to leave, as permanent dysfunction stifles hope and engagement.
Great experiences in services stem from intentional standards upheld by leaders. These standards define excellence and create accountability.
