In this episode of the Culture Focused Practice Podcast, Dr. Tara Vossenkemper calls BS on the myth of the “lazy team.” What looks like laziness is usually fog — unclear expectations, half-baked communication, and leadership gaps that leave your team flailing. Tara unpacks why clarity is everything when it comes to performance, engagement, and accountability, and how EOS gives you the structure to lead without babysitting.

From role confusion to mushy priorities and undocumented decisions, she breaks down the hidden cost of “half clarity” and offers tools for building a culture that actually runs itself (without you being in every detail). Spoiler alert: structure is freedom — if you do it right.
