EP 40: The Reset Strategy for When Negativity Starts Spreading Like Wildfire

It only takes one spark. A sarcastic comment. A sigh in the meeting. A grumble in the hallway. Before long, negativity is everywhere—burning through the team faster than progress can put it out. Negativity isn’t harmless venting. It’s contagious. It lowers energy, kills momentum, and trains people to look for what’s wrong instead of focusing on solutions. And once it spreads, it doesn’t just drag down performance—it rewires the culture. The team starts expecting problems, not possibilities. Here’s the real danger: when leaders don’t reset the tone, negativity becomes the default setting. Meetings turn heavy. Collaboration dries up. Even your best people start showing up drained, wondering why they should give their all when the atmosphere guarantees defeat. In this episode, I’ll give you the reset strategy that stops negativity in its tracks. You’ll learn how to shift the energy without ignoring reality, redirect conversations back to solutions, and reestablish the standard that keeps your culture strong. Because leadership isn’t about pretending the fire isn’t burning. It’s about knowing how to put it out before it consumes the room.
