I work for a place that's been great to me over the years, and when you make a mistake, you're hurting your company as well.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Every time I make a mistake with a company, I write it out and try to figure out why it happened.
You try and learn from some people's mistakes. But you have to really trust the people who are working for you because they make a lot of decisions that could either do well for you or really screw up your image.
I often tell people when you make a mistake, you not only hurt yourself, but you hurt the ones that love you.
In business, if you realize you've made a bad decision, you change it.
I've made mistakes in business, but none so big I couldn't recover and learn from them. The more you try to change consumer behaviour, the riskier it gets. You have to work out your potential losses against the obvious gains.
Everything has to be perfect in my business. Because when there is a mistake I am the one who is responsible.
I am comfortable giving people direction. If something is not good enough, my job is to find a way to help them learn from their mistake, and understand that next time I expect better.
One thing is certain in business. You and everyone around you will make mistakes.
It's a mistake to dwell too much on the consequences of a piece of work that you're making.
One of the torturous things about my job is that, as time goes on, you get more and more clarity on all the things you've screwed up and all the mistakes you've made.
