This really landed with me. In the last few years of leading teams, hiring, and mentoring, I’ve learned that mistakes are inevitable, but how we hold space for them matters so much more.
Creating a culture where people can acknowledge what went wrong, without blame but with honesty, has led to better outcomes and stronger trust. And I’ve also had to unlearn the habit of hiding emotion, staying composed doesn’t mean being disconnected.
Really appreciate this perspective.
