On Season 1 Episode 9:
Business owners, leaders and managers often hold a certain expectation of their employees. But these expectations change employee by employee. However, what we learn about in this episode of the podcast is loads of research which suggests our expectations of others - and ourselves - becomes reality.

When leaders hold high-expectations of their employees, they are far more likely to overcommunicate, provide additional support and encouragement, resulting in a higher performing employee. When leaders have low-expectations of their employees, these employees tend to perform more poorly than their cohorts creating quite the chicken and egg scenario.

On Season 1 Episode 8:
As organization and business leaders we often find ourselves in possessions of negotiation. In these moments we try to ascribe appropriate value to possessions, people, ideas and more. But we're often allowing personal attachment, emotion and nostalgia to impact the value we ascribe to these things leading to overvalued items and lost opportunities.

In this episode, we dive into the research of what is happening on a subconscious level in these moments - referred to as the endowment effect - and how this leads us into making other poor decisions having to do with status quo bias and loss aversion.

Incentives are necessary drivers of motivation and we all have to get paid to perform our craft. But when money is tied to performance, weird things start to happen. Business owners, leaders and entrepreneurs need to understand when and how incentives can drive increased performance, and when they may actually be undermining performance, demotivating employees and creating a decline in performance.

In this episode, we dive into the research of how applying monetary incentives can undermine an employees intrinsic motivation to perform their skill at a high-level. We look at how organizations are taking the easy route, creating extrinsically motivated environments, producing checklist driven processes driven by looming deadlines, and in this pursuit of performance and productivity are actually creating the opposite effect - killing motivation and performance.
