“Leadership decisions are inherently challenging and take practice.  Not every decision will be a good one: all leaders make mistakes.  No leader, no matter how competent and experienced, is immune from this.  For any leader, handling those mistakes with humility is the key.  Subordinates or direct reports don’t expect their bosses to be perfect.  When the boss makes a mistake but then owns up to that mistake, it doesn’t decrease respect.  Instead, it increases respect for that leader, providing he or she possesses the humility to admit and own mistakes and, most important, to learn from them.” ~ Jocko Willink, Extreme Ownership (Page 287)
