Missed deadline because you forgot an important document.

Lost a client because you forgot to return a call.

Short on revenue targets because you lost your star salesman.

No matter what the problem, no what the reason, it’s not big deal, on ONE condition.

You clean up the mess yourself.

If you leave a mess behind you, there’s a problem.

People won’t trust you, they won’t back you, they won’t believe in you.

Better to avoid that outcome.

Clean up your messes before they become other people’s problems.
