What if my staff undermines boundaries?

If your staff softens policies behind your back, or “just this once,” your boundary system leaks.

Clients learn they can go around you.
Your team learns policies are flexible.
You become the bad guy.

Here’s the shift: policies aren’t real until staff can repeat them verbatim.

The line to your team: “Clients don’t get exceptions. If they request one, bring it to me.”

Make the systems run firm-wide. Create a short internal script sheet:
What we say.
What we don’t say.
When to escalate.

If you hear, “We could just…” that’s your cue to reinforce the policy.
