Be Upfront with Your Expectations | MWM
Share Your Expectations Upfront = It is important to have upfront expectations. As a leader and a friend, lay out the issues at the beginning of a relationship. Don’t wait until the “ideal moment.” Then you can build and develop a good relationship where no one feels manipulated or blindsided. The longer you withhold your expectations from people, the harder it is for those expectations to be a reality in their life.
The Goal is More Important Than the Role | MWM
It’s About The Whole = The first upfront expectation is that it is not about you or me, but it is always about the big picture. It is about what is best for the organization or the whole. The goal is more important than the role, and the vision of the organization is more important than one piece of that vision.

Practice + High Expectations = Mastery
https://youtu.be/dsQkTRU8-i4Are You Motivated By Mastery? = In his book, The Leader’s Greatest Return, John Maxwell discusses what motivates people and how it is important to sit down with your team and learn what motivates them. Mastery is one of the 7 motivations he discusses. A person who is motivated by mastery loves to do things extremely well and exceed expectations. To become a person of mastery, don’t try to master everything, but focus on the one thing that would really benefit your life. When you discover that thing, practice every day, have high expectations, and give 100%.
Have High Expectations = When you can’t wait to deliver a message, the audience can’t wait to hear it. People can tell when a speaker loves what they talk about. Next time you prepare a lesson and get ready to teach, feel good about it, believe the best about it, have high expectations, and anticipate that it will be the best message you have ever given … and it will help you help people.
UPFRONT EXPECTATIONS
Lay Out Expectations From The Beginning = UPFRONT EXPECTATIONS = It is important to have upfront expectations—because the longer you wait, the worse it becomes. Be sure to lay out all the issues and needs in the beginning, and then build upon those to develop a good relationship with others. The longer you withhold expectations of people that they need to know and meet, the harder it is for those expectations to become a reality in their life.

Leadership Expectations
#Expect
Focus On The Big Picture = It's not about you, it's not about me, it's always about the big picture. It's always about what's best for the whole, and the goal is more important than the role. Always look towards the big picture.

Grow Together = Growth is expected, it's not an option. The only guarantee that you will have a better future—in life, on a team, and as part of an organization—is if you are growing. The only way that you can go together, is if you grow together. Growth is expected in everything you do.
Always Value Others = It is important to value people, because people are valuable. When you value people, you add value to them. The more you value others, the more you add value to them, and the more you add value to the world.
Take Responsibility of Your Actions = People love to be empowered, but need to embrace the responsibility. When you are empowered to do things in life, the key is to take responsibility for it and follow through—whether that is taking responsibility for failure, or being the one to acknowledge its successes. Be responsible every time.
Have The Tough Conversations = There will be tough conversations in life. When you are dealing with people, there will always be positive and negative conversations about life's situations—the tough conversations are what it is all about and whether we deal with them or ignore them. The key is to have those tough conversations about situations in life, and always move forward.
