Deep dives
Responding to Leadership Failures
When leaders make mistakes, it is important to respond in a way that leads to growth and reconciliation. One approach is to follow a four-fold filter: own it, admit it, reconcile it, and fix it. Owning the mistake internally involves recognizing and acknowledging the error without trying to conceal or justify it. Admitting the mistake externally requires humility and allows others to learn and grow from it. Reconciliation involves seeking to repair relationships that may have been affected by the mistake. Finally, fixing it entails addressing the factors that contributed to the failure and implementing changes to prevent similar mistakes in the future.
