54: How Authentic Leaders Apologize - a podcast by Dave Stachowiak

Authentic leaders know that there's more to an apology than simply the words"I'm sorry"- although that's a good starting point. Mistakes are inevitable, but few leaders are able to communicate a genuine apology. This week, Bonni Stachowiak returns to discuss how we can make our apologies more meaningful and genuine to the people who receive them.
