If I could pick one way to absolutely decimate your culture and drive your employee's morale into the dirt, while also making your customer's squirm, it would be passive-aggressive reactionary nitpicking masquerading as leadership. I get it, you have high standards and sometimes (lots of times) you feel like pulling your hair out when you see things that don't measure up. The questions is, how can you retain a high standard while also not inadvertently publicly shaming your staff in the process? 

Today on Shift break we will be talking about the scourge of nitpicking bosses, why we can veer into this self-sabotaging territory, and what steps we can take to create a healthier culture where we address issues in a people-first and patient way.
