Judge less, praise more

In this episode of the Leadership Nugget, Fabian tackles a common yet powerful issue: we're quick to judge but slow to praise. He challenges us to reflect on how we react when things go wrong—often with instant criticism—while overlooking the opportunities to recognize when someone does something right.
Fabian explains that this habit of rushing to judge stifles progress, demotivates teams, and undermines trust. Instead, he urges leaders to pause, show patience, and celebrate small wins. Real leadership means recognizing potential, offering praise, and fostering a culture where positive feedback is given freely.
Key Takeaways:
* Criticism comes too easily; praise should come even faster.
* Rushing to judge diminishes progress and destroys trust.
* Celebrate small victories to motivate and empower your team.
* Real leaders focus on understanding and uplifting others, not just pointing out faults.
