One of the biggest reasons a task isn’t done is they just don’t see how it can benefit them. 2. Rather than should’s or shouldn't's, focus on tying responsibilities to personal success. 3. Creating a culture of salon leadership brings up future leaders, making your business more sustainable. 4. Be firm but kind 5. Another reason someone doesn’t take responsibility is because they assume someone else will take care of it. 6. When addressing, keep it short and simple, and pull them away privately. 7. When someone owns a task, they’re more likely to do it. 8. Create a sanitation list and introduce it at a meeting. 9. Another reason something isn’t done is because someone doesn't feel accountable. 10. Try a nomination box to bring team morale together, give a gift card to the most nominated employee. 11.

Focus on clarity over assumption 14. Have policies like this written in a team handbook or policy guide. 15. Address issues 1:1 and not in a group.
