The Day You're Wrong In Front Of Everyone

Your team doesn't need you to be right. They need to know what happens when you're not.Here's what nobody tells you: when you're wrong in front of your team, they aren't deciding whether they still respect you. They're pricing something — figuring out what it costs around here to tell you you're wrong. And whatever answer they get in the next ten minutes becomes policy.Because the mistake is a coin flip. What you do next is a policy. Your team doesn't walk out thinking "he was wrong once." They walk out thinking "this is how it goes here."In this episode I walk through The Ten Minutes — three moves for the window right after you get caught:1. Say It Plain, Say It First — the clean admission, the three add-ons that ruin it, and why you fix it the same size you broke it2. Give the Credit Away, By Name — the move almost nobody makes, and why "good catch" is not the same as "I was wrong"3. Close It Where They Can See It — an apology closes a moment; a correction changes a systemPlus how it maps to the LEAD Framework: Listen, Envision, Align, Drive.
