One of the greatest thinkers in my field (and in my time) was a man named Peter Drucker. Not only did I not lose any business, I was later interviewed in the Harvard Business Review and many other publications. In my career, I am sort of a pioneer. I was one of the original developers of something called 360 degree feedback.

There is nothing you or I can do about the past, except to apologize for our mistakes, ask forgiveness, and invite suggestions on ways we might improve in one or two development areas. You might choose to change jobs or career where you have more opportunity to serve. That's why I only engage in 'feed forward' (not feedback).
