Everyone deserves a second chance. When you make a mistake at work, and you will, being shown grace is such a relief. Knowing your supervisor lives and works with grace relieves crippling fear.
Since you appreciate grace, you should show grace to others. Show grace to your coworkers, both up and down the chain of command. Show grace to customers, waiters, in traffic (a very hard one), family, strangers, flight attendants, retail workers, referees, Uber drivers, and your dog.
I have spent a lot of time researching and creating great places to work. Truly great workplaces allow room for grace. Employees who know their superiors lead with grace will deliver higher performance. Grace drives out fear. Removing fear helps to create great organizations.
It’s the simple things that make the biggest difference. Grace at work is simple but extremely effective.
