The ‘Marcus’ story struck a nerve. But what happened next revealed something even darker…

Picture this:

A tech company’s award-winning “star partners”?

• Overcharging clients
• Bullying customers
• Ghosting after the sale
• Destroying the company’s reputation

And they weren’t alone…

An ops team’s golden players? Silently crushing team morale.

The pattern emerging: The ones winning all the awards… were often doing the most damage.

As one leader put it: “How often do we let numbers overshadow the real team dynamics?”

Here’s the game-changing truth…

Removing toxic elements from any team is never easy, but when you do…

• Results consistently climb
• Teams unleash their true potential
• Success becomes unstoppable

Why? Because now we know:

Performance without integrity isn’t just worthless…

It’s the invisible barrier holding your entire organization back.

To the leaders who shared these stories – thank you for exposing what many face but few dare to confront.

Sometimes your “star performer” is the ceiling, not the floor.
