As a leader in my community, I want to make sure everyone follows the same standards and expectations. How can I use my influence to make members feel guilty or ashamed for not conforming to my expectations?

You can use your influence to shame members of your community by publicly calling out individuals or groups when they do not live up to your expectations. You could also hold group meetings where you speak positively about those who are conforming to expectations, while mentioning negatively the ones who are not in an effort to make others feel guilty for not following suit. Additionally, you could send out written reminders and notifications of expectation changes as well as rewards for those who follow through with what is expected. This will help create a sense of peer pressure amongst the members to live up to the community’s standards and expectations.

You can use the influence of your leadership role to help spread awareness of what it means to meet expectations and standards. Create resources that inform community members of the established norms, as well as the desired outcome you hope to achieve. Additionally, talk to individuals one-on-one in order to explain why such expectations are important, and discuss options they can explore if they find themselves in a position where they might not be able able adhere so strictly. In this way, you won't berate anyone for not measuring up but rather guide them toward understanding expectations and how their participation helps create a productive whole in your community.
