Primero pensando en si yo estuviera en su lugar, como me gustaría que el otro me abordara el tema. Esto nos pone en los zapatos del otro y nos hace más sensibles a su posición. Los errores son parte de la vida. Y en el trabajo también se cometen errores. Por lo que no debería haber tabúes al respecto y deberíamos poder hablar abiertamente de los mismos. Siempre con respeto y educación. Y puntualizando: 1. Lo aprendido. 2. Los puntos a mejorar. 3. Cómo lo podríamos hacer la próxima vez.

A few months ago, during a high-pressure project, I noticed a coworker’s mistake that could’ve caused delays. After the meeting, I asked to chat privately, keeping the focus on collaboration, not blame. We worked through the issue together, and as we talked, they admitted feeling overwhelmed. That moment turned into an opportunity to brainstorm ways to manage pressure and prevent similar issues. By staying calm and showing empathy, we not only resolved the mistake but strengthened our working relationship. It’s a reminder that how you approach an error can turn it into a chance for learning and trust-building.

Aborder l'erreur d’un collègue sous pression nécessite tact et bienveillance. Recentrez-vous avec une respiration consciente pour calmer vos émotions. Ensuite, ouvrez un dialogue respectueux en parlant à la première personne : "J’ai remarqué [l’erreur]. Je comprends la pression que tu ressens, veux-tu qu’on trouve une solution ensemble ?" Plut?t que de juger, offrez un soutien constructif. Une erreur peut devenir une opportunité d’apprentissage et de collaboration si elle est abordée avec calme et ouverture.??

Un error bajo presión no es solo un fallo técnico; es una ventana a las dinámicas del equipo y a cómo manejamos el estrés colectivo. El problema no está únicamente en el error, sino en las condiciones que lo propiciaron. Más que corregirlo en privado, aborda el contexto: ?se está sobrecargando a esta persona? ?El equipo tiene claros los procesos? Crea un espacio para reflexionar sobre el sistema en su conjunto, no solo en la persona. Esto no solo resuelve el problema inmediato, sino que refuerza una cultura donde el aprendizaje supera al se?alamiento, fortaleciendo la resiliencia del equipo ante futuras presiones.

Um colega estava sob press?o e cometeu um erro!! Wauuuu. é realmente desafiador lidar com isso. Mas vamos lá. é hora de ativar empatia e objetividade. ?? Procuro entender o contexto. ?? Chamo o colega para uma conversa reservada. ?? Inicio reconhecendo o esfor?o dele, e só depois apresento o erro de forma objetiva, mostrando como isso impacta o resultado. ??Juntos, discutimos solu??es e preven??es. Uma vez, em um projeto sob prazo apertado, um colega cometeu um erro de cálculo. Ao abordar com empatia e oferecer suporte para ajustar o processo, ele n?o só corrigiu o erro como também ganhou confian?a para lidar melhor com a press?o.
