“I am Sorry”

 

“I am Sorry”

This beautiful 3-words text melts all the frozen grudges when spoken with genuine feel and reciprocated with genuine forgiveness…Isn’t it?

Since we gain conscience, we are taught to say sorry whenever we commit mistake either knowingly or unknowingly…

But as we grow up and enter the age and space of ‘gentlemen and ladies’ we resort to maintaining a palpable distance from this 4-letter word SORRY as it is deemed as sign of weakness.

‘Leaders Never Apologises’ or ‘Top Management Never Apologises’ are the usual phrases which echo in the corridors of sophisticated professionals.

Most of the Leaders or people at Top Management even if they are aware that they have done wrong, they never apologise as they feel they have to always appear strong and assertive and the word sorry will show them as weak or vulnerable. Which is also one of the reasons for their being alone and cut off from the rest.

If you want others to follow you or tread along with you, you need to set standards. By not accepting your mistake even if you are not directly or knowingly responsible you are only keeping people away from you. Instead of strong relations or connections, you are developing strong knots of grudges which are certainly not helpful either for growth of organizations or relations.

Apology is not a sign of weakness rather it’s an attribute of your being humane.

To Err is only Human. Hence being human we can’t escape this attribute. Then why we escape from apology.

If you truly apologise it shows your human side only, it shows you truly cares for and think about others feelings. Apology- whether at work place or in family or among friends, doesn’t keep you down but only enhance your grandeur beside sustaining a deep bond of trust and connection with your friends, family or colleagues.

 It prevents sowing seed of any deep grudge or resentment which may in future harm your relations. At the same time when that apology is reciprocated with forgiveness, it helps develop a divine entity with flow of purity in the atmosphere where there is no space for any hard feelings for anyone. An ambience of Respect grows in full bloom which is just required for smooth flow of organizations or relations.

Trust and Respect Are The Two Soft Attributes which are required at work place for incessant growth of any organization. And SORRY or APOLOGY has that power to develop the strong pillars of Trust and Respect. Blaire Palmer - a leadership coach, also said once, “If leaders are going to drive any kind of change in their organizations, they need to create an environment of trust and you do that by forming authentic human connections with other people.”

Undoubtedly, the act of Apology weaves a strong human connection, eventually paving way for formidable and constant growth.

By apologizing, one is not exhibiting ones' weakness,  instead, a genuine word of sorry creates an open atmosphere of trust and only strengthens the pious human bond further.

In the words of Kador – a famous business writer – “Apology Is The Elixir That Defuses Conflict”

Lets develop the beautiful world without any conflict…Lets step towards the world of being human…

A very famous author once said, “An apology is a loveliest perfume. It can transform the clumsiest moment into a gracious gift”
