I have always felt that one of the best ways to gain the measure of a person is how they act after having made a mistake.
If they own up to it, apologies, take all reasonable measures to fix the damage done and then take steps to ensure the mistake is not made again....
I consider that person a great leader and an honorable person who I would like to work with. If however they blame others, refuse to apologies, don't take responsibility for the damage done and don't take steps to not repeat the mistake, then that is not a person I want to work with and cant respect.
Have you seen the way Trump responds when he or his campaign is confronted with a mistake?
He runs and hides, he gets angery, he attacks the victim, he causes worse damage and he does it again next week.
