Arguably there is a new culture of mediocracy permeating workplaces whereby sub-par performance is becoming accepted practice.

Summary

KEY POINTS
  1. Mediocracy is a result of letting down our guard and feeling we are still successful when we aren’t.
  2. It can be a feeling of victimisation within a broken system.
  3. Leaders need to intervene by challenging employees to step up by setting benchmarks for effective performance.
