Please say more about wanting to “draw the line” in adhering to policies and how you perceive it relates to someone with a “personality” culture?

1. How do you define “personality culture”
2. In what ways are these people not adhering?

Thanks for keeping the conversation going!

But how I wish we could be consistent in drawing the line at work? I struggle to explain to those who practice a culture of personality than of performance - and sometimes, they are tolerated because of the great skills they possess. I guess I'm drifting away but when faced with skilled individuals failing as good "purposeful" employees - how do you manage to draw the line in adhering to work policies n processes? Love to hear your thoughts on this. Sheetal I draw the line where work ethics are questioned. But how I wish we could be consistent in drawing the line at work?

It's a dealbreaker for me. And it will cause me to proceed with caution for almost ever. I draw the line at monkeys when someone is dishonest. It’s a dealbreaker for me.
