360. You're Solving The Wrong Problem

Leaders unconsciously create the dysfunctional environments they later complain about — you're not the frog, you're the chef.
Every boundary you don't enforce becomes tomorrow's baseline; every accommodated dysfunction becomes next week's normal.
The Pattern-Environment Loop™ explains how your behavioral patterns create an environment that then reinforces those same patterns.
Most leaders try to fix the team (the frog) when the real problem is their own unchecked behavior (the heat).
You won't notice this happening in real time — that's precisely what makes it dangerous.

Audit one recurring team dysfunction and ask: what behavior of yours created the conditions for this?
Stop letting things slide "just this once" — each exception sets a new standard.
When culture starts slipping, don't reach for more training or feedback before looking in the mirror first.
Name your patterns. You can't change what you can't see.
Before your next "small ask" outside normal hours, ask whether you're adding another degree to the water.

Identify one boundary you've consistently failed to enforce and decide — right now — what you'll do differently starting this week.
The next time you're frustrated with your team's behavior, ask yourself: "What did I do, or not do, that made this the norm?"
