I can't relate to people who talk like they've never made mistakes or their clients respond predictably......I either dismiss them or decide I'm totally hopeless. When I listen to someone who is real, then I pay attention to what I can do & there's a better chance of it working.theknapperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06179049498112163140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35743239.post-59912756688963459902009-08-15T08:39:07.945-04:002009-08-15T08:39:07.945-04:00One of the things I've learned along the way: ...One of the things I've learned along the way: when I admit I'm wrong, I give others the courage to do the same. <br /><br />Thanks for reminding me of this, Dave.Morah Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04958756531302898368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35743239.post-23917930951561265442009-08-14T12:45:37.366-04:002009-08-14T12:45:37.366-04:00Dave,

Wow, of course she respects you, even if I didn't "know" you, I respect the person who would do what you just did.<br />Wow.<br />Lisalisanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35743239.post-68581128871544476062009-08-14T12:21:29.142-04:002009-08-14T12:21:29.142-04:00I think you did the right thing.

Having someone get far more upset with me at work when I was young and then being micromanaged in a new environment led me to drive other supervisors bonkers because I thought I needed to have everything I did approved. Took me a long time to realize that wasn't expected.FridaWriteshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03321658097813377806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35743239.post-35030082280540648122009-08-14T12:06:27.329-04:002009-08-14T12:06:27.329-04:00Every parent should take note.

People will trust us more, believe us more, and respect us for that admission.

It says to the person you are admiting it to ... I trust you , I believe you , I know your bright. I think it is esp. important that professionals can say you were right and I was wrong. <br /><br />Wouldn't life be great if there were politicians out there said I am wrong , I accept responsibility. There is the word "responsibility" you accepted it and moved on.

The person you apologized to, learned something about humility when you sent that email. It will have an exponential ripple effect into the lives of every staff she ever supervises in her career. I say, "Bravo Dave!!"Belindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09251920708783268740noreply@blogger.com
