An apology is more than just saying, “Sorry.” There's an art to apologizing, in fact, three parts to it:
1. Own It
2. Feel and Empathize
3. Make It Right
Let's explore these tools, plus:
What sort of things should I apologize for?
When should I apologize?
How should I apologize?
What if I don’t think what I did was wrong, but someone still felt hurt by it?
What if the other person is partly to blame?
What if I think I’ll make the same mistake again?
What happens after I apologize?
. . .
