Ludwig gives parents tips on how to work with their kids, not against them, by reinforcing good habits instead of punishing bad ones.

I would choose not to do that on my teams, because I believe the practices are mutually reinforcing and work together so well that I give up something amazing if I leave one or more out.

While that kind of makes sense on the surface, the manager who does this is actually rewarding low-performing employees (and reinforcing their behavior) by giving them less work.
