00:00:02.300 I call it teach, not tell.
00:00:03.660 When I have people that work for me,
00:00:05.120 I don't tell them what to do.
00:00:06.300 If I see something they're doing wrong,
00:00:07.820 I write it down, I create a training,
00:00:09.680 I teach it, and now I have a standard.
00:00:11.960 When I'm coaching people and they say,
00:00:13.220 you know, my team's not figuring it out
00:00:14.740 or they're too slow
00:00:15.760 or I don't feel like the risk takers,
00:00:17.140 make a list, all of them.
00:00:18.200 Now show me where you've done a training
00:00:20.580 on how those things should be done right.

00:00:33.720 you pull out that video and say,
00:00:34.780 hey, remember this video you watched?
00:00:36.280 Let's talk about the way you showed up
00:00:37.540 in that last meeting.
