I cannot hesitate to state how important it is to enact correction in a proper way. I used to tell my colleagues at a business I ran that my style of leadership is a “velvet glove on top of a steel hand”. I told them that what you will feel coming from me originally and progressively is the velvet but be very careful about taking advantage of the velvet because then you will understand the steel. Others have a leadership style that is steel first and velvet later, but if I were to exercise that type it would not be me and everything would collapse around me for sure. We must steadfastly remember: “Stupid fools learn good sense by seeing others punished; a sensible person learns by being corrected.” Proverbs 19:25 Once again, the way we correct is the paramount issue, and it behooves all of us to become sensitive and sensible into the context we are a part of as we do not want to be over-bearing . We must learn when to start and stop when to make an entrance and exit and how we can speak the kind of advice that not only seeks to portray what is wrong but provide intelligent and inspired direction into any corrective context.
