How can you recognize when you’ve made a mistake and try to rectify it, all while remaining calm and kind to yourself?

We’re always going to make mistakes, but that doesn’t make it any easier. And for engineers stepping into management roles, these mistakes can feel even tougher as you’re not just dealing with lines of code, but real people with real emotions.

In this panel, we’ll discuss how you can recognize your own mistakes, react to them, and begin to rectify a situation.

Key takeaways 

 

  • Consider how to take ownership of mistakes
  • Recognize if you’ve caused damage
  • Rebuild trust with your team
