What You Permit, You Promote
Every time you let something slide, you're teaching people what matters—and what doesn't.
You can preach values all day, but the real culture is shaped by what gets overlooked. Missed deadlines. Undercutting comments. Half-hearted work. Meetings that start late.
As the saying goes: “What you permit, you promote.”
Today, notice something you’ve been tolerating—a tone, a habit, a gap—and confront it. Calmly. Clearly. Lovingly.
Because silence isn’t neutral. It’s leadership.
Solid wisdom! Permitting the wrong behavior eventually creates a toxic culture that can very easily put somebody else (no longer YOU) in the position of Re-leading.
Absolutely!! Amen & Amen!!!
