Summary

Think about the last time you dealt with someone you were trying really hard to be professional with. Despite multiple miscommunications on their part — and what was clearly laziness, apathy, and them mailing it in — you kept trying to be the adult. You kept overcompensating for their lack of effort. You kept telling yourself, “Hold yourself to a higher standard.”   But it’s still getting you nowhere.   You want to lose it. You want to let them have it. But you hesitate — because everything in leadership and communication says “keep your cool.”   So the question becomes: At what point does that restraint stop helping and start hurting? At what point are you completely justified in going old-school — 1950s dad style — and giving someone a full-on ass-chewing?   What You’ll Learn:   •How to recognize when it’s time to stop playing nice and start holding the line •A real-world filter to help you decide when to confront someone directly •Why giving someone the business doesn’t mean losing your professionalism •How to hit someone with hard truth — without losing your message or your control   Why It Matters:   If you lead, coach, manage, or parent — this will give you a concrete decision-making lens for high-friction moments. You’ll stop second-guessing yourself when someone needs to be checked, and you’ll know how to do it in a way that’s firm, clear, and productive.   Come see us in: 📍Oakland, CA – July 12-13📍Melbourne, AUS – August 23-24📍Murfreesboro, TN – October 25-26   Follow Us: Website: ArtofCoaching.com Instagram: @coach_brettb X: @coach_brettb
