Where Has “Good Enough” Become the Standard?
Sep 05, 2026
Don't answer it too quickly.
Where have you accepted acceptable?
Maybe it's your own leadership.
Maybe it's a member of your team.
Maybe it's communication.
Culture.
Instruction.
Enrollment.
Governance.
Operations.
Meetings.
Accountability.
Or maybe it's a system you've known for months needs to be strengthened—but things haven't gotten bad enough to force action.
That's the danger of acceptable.
It doesn't hurt enough to demand change.
But High Performance isn't about waiting until something breaks.
It's about continually asking:
What standard are we capable of achieving—and what will it take to get there?
You don't have to be failing to be capable of more.
In fact, that's the point.
