I don’t have a ticket!

“Tell me, what do you do when someone starts crying?” Mr. B. recently asked during one of my seminars. He had asked his colleague to improve some aspects of a task that she had completed for him. As a result his colleague had raised her voice. He said that she had accused him [...]
