Which part is for you

Part 1 explains the pattern, for everyone. Then each reader has a part of their own.

  • If it’s happening to you

    Part 2You keep replaying conversations, looking for what you did wrong. You keep apologising, and it keeps happening.

  • If you handle the complaint

    Part 3You need to tell the difference between someone who was harmed and someone who learned to describe harm.

  • If you lead, govern or hire

    Part 4You need to know why a strong reputation can survive what close colleagues know.
