As a Christ-follower in the workplace, you are likely to mess up once in a while. What you do next is the key to helping others see the difference Jesus is making in you. Ford Taylor from Transformational Leadership has developed the 6-step Apology. Today is step 5. Step 5 involves accountability. You say to the person you have wronged, "I give you permission to hold me accountable for not behaving this way anymore." You are not making them hold you accountable. You are permitting them. When we open the door to accountability, we are opening the door to change in our life. When we are quick to admit our wrong and ask for forgiveness when we make a mistake at work, it is an excellent opportunity to show the world what it looks like to love our neighbor.
