Thinking about losing your entire team?
Here are a few tips and tricks to get you started.

If your goal is to lose credibility, frustrate people, and quietly drain trust from the room, here’s a pretty effective formula:

• Show up late or do not show up at all
• Be distracted or at least look distracted
• Avoid eye contact like it is part of the plan
• Be disingenuous
• Gossip instead of leading
• Hold meetings where nothing gets accomplished
• Be overtly dismissive of feedback
• Do not follow up
• Take credit and give none
• Make sure expectations are never clear

It is a surprisingly effective playbook if your end goal is confusion, misalignment, and a team that no longer wants to follow you anywhere.

Leadership is not just about making decisions. It is about how those decisions are communicated, owned, and followed through.

People remember how you handled the moment.

And if you would actually like to keep your team... just do the opposite.

Not everyone needs your story.
Oversharing creates risk.
Discretion matters.

Avoid sharing travel plans or personal details with people you don’t know. Information can be used in ways you didn’t intend.

🔑 Preparedness reminder: Share carefully. Protect your privacy.

Your name carries weight.
So do your recommendations.
Choose them carefully.

When you endorse someone, you’re attaching your reputation to their work. Thoughtful, accurate endorsements build trust and strengthen everyone involved.

Be specific.
Be honest.
Be intentional.

Travel starts before you leave.
Preparation reduces risk.
Planning builds confidence.

Research your destination ahead of time and create a simple plan for your trip. Know the area, understand the environment, and think through how you’ll move safely from place to place.

LSDS can help you plan for safer, more informed travel.

Preparedness reminder: Don’t just arrive ready. Prepare before you go.

Your instincts exist for a reason.
They pick up what logic hasn’t yet.
Listen to them.

That first feeling often signals something is off. You may not be able to explain it immediately, but awareness starts there.

Pause.
Assess.
Adjust if needed.

Not every meeting needs to happen.
But every meeting that does should matter.

Time is one of your team’s most valuable resources. Don’t meet just to meet. Show up with a purpose, a clear agenda, and defined deliverables.

That’s how alignment happens.
That’s how progress is made.

Looking lost draws attention.
Attention creates opportunity.
Awareness matters.

If you need to check directions, step into a safe, public place before pulling out your phone or map. It keeps you focused and reduces unwanted attention.

🔑 Preparedness reminder: Pause in a safe space before you reorient.

Not every neighborhood is what it appears.
Some look perfect.
The data tells a different story.

If you’re moving this summer, take time to review local crime maps. Many cities and police departments provide this information, giving you a clearer picture before you commit.

Curb appeal doesn’t equal safety.
Insight leads to better decisions.

If you need help evaluating an area, LSDS can assist and provide a more complete view of risk.

Preparedness reminder:
Don’t rely on appearance. Research before you move.

Crowded spaces create opportunity.
Distractions make it easier.
Position matters.

On busy trains, buses, or transit, move your backpack to your front. It creates a barrier and makes it harder for anyone to access your belongings without you noticing.

Small adjustment.
Less risk.
