What to do with "people problems"

Biggest Takeaways You Don't Want to Miss:
  • It is really hard to try to change people. In fact, trying to solve your people problems by changing the people only leads to more frustration.
  • Every process delivers the exact outcomes it was designed to deliver. That means that if you don’t like the outcomes you are getting, you need to change the process.
  • If you rely on changing people, you will always be frustrated because you cannot control people. But, you CAN control the process and the good news is that if you change the process, you can change people’s behaviors.
