How To Recover From Making A False Accusation - Fridays with Ferne: Episode #41

The Frame of Mind Coaching™ Podcast

Nick oversees a team of 10. There is one guy on his team that Nick has mixed feelings about. While Dan brings the rest of the team together, he also seems to be the weakest link. This week, it’s Dan’s turn to present, and instead of bringing his usual funny but simplistic work to the table, he prepares an outstanding presentation. Nick is not only shocked but in disbelief, so much so that he accuses Dan of making his numbers up. Dan is evidently offended and leaves the room in angry silence.

Later, Nick finds out that while Dan did not make the numbers up, he got a friend to help him put his pitch together. Nick half-heartedly apologizes, knowing that he was right that it wasn’t Dan’s work alone. But Dan is still very much offended. There is heavy tension in the office which is uncomfortable and is starting to affect work productivity.

Nick doesn’t know how to fix things. He already tried apologizing and it wasn’t enough, he shouldn’t need to do it again, so now he doesn’t know what else to do.
