116: When the Rules Keep Changing - STOP Playing the Game

If you’re exhausted, it might not be the workload—it might be the "game." In this episode, Tammy J. Bond exposes a common but toxic leadership trap: the environment where success is only explained after the fact. When rules change midstream and expectations shift without notice, even the strongest leaders begin to shrink back, second-guess their decisions, and over-explain their value. Tammy challenges you to stop being a "survivalist" and start being a strategist. Learn how to identify when agility has crossed the line into "power without accountability" and discover why refusing to chase moving targets isn’t quitting—it’s a prerequisite for great leadership. In This Episode, You’ll Discover: The Moving Target Trap: Why "agility" is often used as a mask for a lack of clarity and a refusal to be held accountable. When Confidence Becomes a Liability: The psychological shift that happens when people can no longer predict what success looks like. The "Airplane" Example: A real-world look at how leaders negotiate away their authority by not being in the room where decisions are made. Adaptability vs. Self-Betrayal: How to set boundaries that protect your health and your team’s momentum without being "difficult." The Proactive Reset: How to use "curious questioning" to force a pause and reset the rules of the game in your favor. Tammy’s Sandbox Truths: "You cannot win in an environment where success is explained after the fact." "Adaptability without boundaries is actually self-betrayal." "You don’t lose authority overnight. You negotiate it away." Power Questions for Your "Sandbox Reset": For Self-Reflection: Am I currently rewarding outcomes that I never actually named for my team? For Strategy: Am I waiting for instructions to change, or am I taking responsibility for defining the goal? For Boundaries: What "moving target" am I currently chasing that I need to stop and name out loud?
