Another great video Brock! Would be keen to get your thoughts on a slightly different perspective - if people have become used to someone’s high performance, does it then become easier to spot their small mistakes and think “they aren’t living up to their reputation/abilities” ?
Absolutely, I've seen it before - someone has a really strong personal brand/reputation, but then when people work with them for the first time they are almost "underwhelmed" by them. Having a strong reputation can even motivate people to find your flaws - it's a natural human tendency for us to want to bring down those we perceive as being above us. Everything has two sides and nothing comes free, so the downsides of a strong brand are the higher expectations and experiencing tall poppy syndrome. You don't get to avoid problems in life, but you get to choose them.
