EP 809 ☕️ "Why Don't My Staff PTs Respect Me?" [Coffee with Goughy]
Today, I tackled the question "Why don't my staff PTs respect me?" — tracing it back to a self-respect problem in the business owner rather than the employees themselves.
Explained why respect from staff starts with an owner's own self-belief, and broke down the cultural shift since 2005 where employees stopped automatically respecting "the boss"
Unpacked how entitled, "why should I?" attitudes trace back to expensive degrees, indoctrinating colleges, and a generation raised without real risk or consequences
Argued that being an employee doesn't entitle you to the upside of risks you didn't take, and made the case for why owners need unshakeable self-belief to run a successful business
