A good apology

A good apology rests on seven pillars:

a sincere demeanor,

an acknowledgment of responsibility,

a candid expression of regret,

an explanation where necessary,

a genuine promise to prevent this from happening again,

an offer to repair the damage done,

and a request for forgiveness.

The more pillars your apology rests on, the better it is - both for you and who you intend it for.

Often, saying “i’m sorry“ alone isn’t enough.
