Yeah, me too. I once had a leader call a multi-thousand-dollar error on my part "an educational investment." He then explained to me what I should've done differently and I never heard anything else about it. It was awesome because A) I knew how to avoid that mistake in the future (and I guarantee you I never made that mistake again) and B) I felt a lot more confident in my job and my leadership, and confidence plus security kind of naturally results in better work overall. It was a great way to handle it.
