Short YouTube-style advice from Paula Caligiuri, PhD on admitting when someone else is right. The speaker recommends owning mistakes, explicitly stating what the other person was right about, giving credit, and ensuring admissions are authentic; ends with a brief call-to-action to follow for more.
Whether it's in our personal life or at work, we have all been in the situation when someone was right and we were wrong. If this happens to you, own it. Say you're right, and then fill in what they were right about. Like you were so right about this proposal. Change it is a much better solution. Or you were right about the color to paint the bathroom. It is way better than the one I selected. Admitting that someone else was right shows that you're confident enough to admit a mistake and open to learning. It's also a way to give others credit for their knowledge, skills, and abilities. But remember, it's not just about the words. It needs to be authentic. Follow me to learn more.
