Apology Vs Acknowledgment

September 8, 2014

When working through conflict, does saying “I’m sorry” really work?

In my experience, no. Most of the time it is used as a way to “hurry up” and move on. Sure, there is a place for a genuine apology, but I don’t recommend any apology until you’ve first acknowledged where you messed up or caused harm.

As you can see, a true repair isn’t just about an apology. It’s about helping the other person see that we also see what we did or did not do.
