Carl-Gould-#70secondCEO-Bad News First: The Rule That Builds Trust and Accountability

from Carl Gould #70secondCEO · host Carl Gould

 Bad News First: The Rule That Builds Trust and Accountability Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO. Just a little over a one minute investment every day for a lifetime of results.  I do make it clear, you don't have mistake amnesty if you make the same dumb ass mistake over and over again, right? It's not amnesty from being, you know, not doing your job. If you keep making the same mistake, yes, you should be worried, right? But if this is a mistake, honest mistake, you just, you know, you're supposed to do something here, you didn't, or it went out late, or whatever, or you sent the draft and you didn't send the final, okay, got it, just let me know, and we'll deal with that. I use the phrase bad news first. Bad news first. Good news can always wait. Right. Bad news. I wanna know, and I tell them, if I hear it from anyone else other than you, like if Aaron made the mistake,  but I hear about it from Mike, and then I've gotta confront Aaron, then that's a big problem with Aaron, right? Okay, but if Aaron made, if Aaron, something goes just not even as expected, Aaron comes up and says, hey, listen, here was my goal, we fell short, here's why, amnesty. Like and follow this podcast so you can learn more. My name is Carl Gould and this has been your #70secondCEO.
