Mis-alignment between expectations of the team and the actual management style, this could be team values that are in print but forgotten in practice. Continuity (unless a cultural pivot is indicated) and expectations that motivators are the same for everybody.

Many leaders make one of two common mistakes. The first mistake they make is that they think their self-worth and self-esteem depend on their team, how well their team does, and whether or not the company does well. So, they only start to praise and reward the team when they see that it's doing well. This is a very bad idea. flagle
