It is common at corporates and in boardrooms to see grown- ups throw a fit and react badly to criticism. Often they are loathe to admit their mistakes, so end up in the equivalent of tears. A simple, yet effective way to deal with this is to first understand the problem, to get in to the root of it. Then one needs to work on solutions, about what has then to be done. This is followed by an offer of help. Often the help may involve external management consulting agencies’ interventions. A one- time intervention may also create an impact for later on. Expressing support and clarity works much better than do frustration or disappointment.
