Ever wonder what happens when leaders say that one sentence they instantly regret—while the whole world is watching?
In sports, mistakes get instant replays.
In business, they get Twitter… and hashtags you definitely don’t want trending.
On today’s episode, Jaime Peters and Cindy Goodwin-Sak dig deep into those excruciating “Oh Sh*t” moments, when a single comment, tweet, or private jet ride becomes the next viral headline.
* Can a leader recover when trust is shaken?
* What’s the fallout when an apology falls flat or never comes at all?
We break down iconic blunders from names like Satya Nadella, Alan Mulally, Elon Musk, and Tony Hayward, and look at how some leaders bounce back while others lose it all.
Plus, we share a few of our own “wish-I-could-take-that-back” moments (spoiler: Angry Birds and accidental texts included!).
In this episode, you’ll learn:
* Why instant apologies (and real action) matter more than spin
* How “oh sh*t” moments test a leader’s credibility and what separates a comeback from a crash-and-burn
* Why everyone from Wall Street to Main Street will always bet on resilience over perfection
If you’ve ever cringed at a CEO meltdown, accidentally texted “I love you” to a colleague, or hoped your latest faux pas would quietly disappear…this episode is for you.
Keep your spreadsheet handy and your coffee strong! ☕️
