If your coworker makes an error that is disrespectful to you, meet with him privately and discuss the matter. No one else needs to know. You don’t need to behave as if you are immune to missing the mark. We all do but how do you respond when your friend, colleague, or family member messes up? Do you respond with love? Are you discreet in your approach or loud? I witnessed one of my colleagues, Jerry, make an error in the office. It was a simple oversight. Another colleague, called him John, saw it and called some of the other coworkers to brief them while he was present. Jerry looked, listened, and never said a word. However, another colleague said to John, “Wait a minute, that’s an easy fix. You can fix it yourself because it’s obvious, it’s a simple mistake.”We can all apply the same attitude displayed by the colleague who responded to John. When someone complains to you about another person’s fault, don’t encourage them to launch an advertisement. Encourage him to talk with the individual privately to resolve it. If your attitude is to start an ad campaign every time someone makes a mistake, how do you expect others to respond when you make an error?
