Ask May: Made a big mistake at work? 3 steps to fix it

What would you do if you made a mistake that went all the way up to senior management?
Whether it was a minor thing that got blown out of proportion for a big error on your part, by the time word gets up to senior management, what’s done is done.
What matters now is how you fix your board reputation and overcome any unintended bad perceptions.
If this is something you want to know how to avoid or if you're currently in a similar situation or want to ensure you know how to avoid it, this is for you.
One of my readers asked:
“I work in accounting and my boss mentioned that something I processed (materially its insignificant) is getting negative attention from his boss and their boss all the way to the top. Is there anything that I can do to mitigate the damage to ensure I don't lose my job over it.”
In this video, I share three steps you can take to turn your mistake into a learning experience.
After you’ve taken these three steps, you can tell your boss what you’ve done to fix the situation, what you've learned from it, what you've taken away and how you'll keep it from happening again.
