    • Careers

You can almost feel this moment in your bones: you receive an email, or phone call asking to explain “what happened here?” or you're accused of doing something that had unintentional consequences. Maybe you realized something is wrong and you're left with that sickening feeling of having to address it. This often kicks off the “blame game” - pointing fingers and finding fault in others to deflect responsibility. This is natural, yet we need to push against it. Listen and learn how to shift your mindset so that in these situations you focus on what you can control. When we manage our responses, we can rise above the situations that come our way!
