Applaud the Beginner

    Beginners make lots of mistakes. They can look ridiculous and they can be annoyingly frustrating. And, at one time, that beginner was us. Every self-made, successful person has had his or her own beginning.

   A beginner makes a rookie mistake. How does the beginner react to your correction? Does he act defensively? Is he angry, frustrated and more interested in making excuses than making amends? Remember, it would be difficult or impossible to change this type of person.

   Your job as a business leader is to recognize potential. Who is a good listener? Who appears to learn quickly? Who shows talent? Who volunteers? Who could you stand to work with all day? Who is a younger version of you? This is the beginner to nurture and applaud.
