An apologetic leader isn\\u2019t followed for very long. Their trust level dips and their judgment of leadership qualities are natural.

 

Sure, if you\\u2019ve made a huge transgression, apologize for it in the context of violating your own values and make a vow to live into your values even more fully.

 

Instead of an apology, consider acknowledgment and appreciation.

Turn, \\u201cOh so sorry I was late\\u201d into \\u201cThank you so much for your patience.\\u201d

You\\u2019ve shifted the focus from you and your tardiness to the other and their positive trait of patience.

 

Try that. 

Live in integrity.
