The Art of Managing Expectations

With speakers Sebastien Braun, CEO & Founder of idloom, MESA Patron Member and John Martinez, Founder & CEO of ShocklogicMESA Patron Member.  

Expectation management is a powerful tool in maintaining healthy relationships, both personal and professional. Expectations provide guidelines, goals, and the accountability necessary to keep things on track. However, if we don't effectively communicate our expectations, how will anyone be able to meet them? It's therefore crucial to ensure that expectations are realistic and achievable; otherwise, it only leads to frustration for everyone involved.

People are far more willing and motivated when they clearly understand what's expected of them and the reason behind those expectations. Join this session to learn more about the benefits of setting clear and realistic expectations. With a strong emphasis on communication, this session focuses on how to clearly articulate your own expectations, how to better understand and manage the expectations of others, and even how to say “no” when necessary. 

Hosted and moderated by Tamsin Treasure-Jones, Co-Founder of KubifyMESA Member.
