The popular Bible quote: “to whom much is given, much is required”, holds true everyday. Every role, every job, comes with a proportional list of expectations. And managing your expectations is squarely your responsibility.

There are a number of steps in effectively managing expectations, and it mostly begins with knowing what those expectations are. Most jobs come with a job description, and the document is expected to detail your expectations on the job.

Next is understanding what the job entails; what are the specific things I will be expected to do, how often am I to do them, and how many am I skillful to deliver? Lastly, how is my work measured? Mastering these simple steps is the best way to take charge of your performance game. I wish you the best my friend.
