Quick Answer
Without documented standards, employees rely on their own interpretation of priorities, past experiences, or what they've seen tolerated. Each person creates their own invisible rulebook, leading to inconsistent customer experiences, conflicting approaches between team members, and decisions that seem logical to the individual but misaligned with organizational goals.
