can make you feel uncomfortable.But,actually,correcting someone helps
that person.You're explaining a rule or helping them understand how you
feel about their behavior.Just don't talk to them in front of others,so you
don't embarrass them.

          one of your workers?
Mr.B :Correcting someone can be hard.You might feel uncomfortable or think
          you're being rude.
Susie:I have felt that way.
Mr.B :But actually,correcting people helps them.

開場白!
   工作先生談到在工作場合糾正別人。糾正別人可能會讓你覺得不舒服,但事實上,
糾正可以幫助對方,你說明規則或是幫助他們了解你對他們行為的感覺,只是不要在
眾人面前說,這樣才不會讓他們太難堪。

對話A
蘇       希:工作先生,謝謝你撥空跟我會面。我知道你是一位忙碌的生意人。
工作先生:對。
蘇       希:我想要請問你,當你需要糾正你的員工時,你會怎麼做?
工作先生:糾正別人有時很困難,你可能會覺得不自在,或覺得自己不禮貌。
蘇       希:我就覺得是那樣。
工作先生:不過事實上糾正人是為了幫助他們。 

對話B
蘇       希:請說明是如何幫助人。
工作先生:可能某人不了解規則,或他們不知道你對他們行為的感覺,
                 你是在幫他們明白這些事。
蘇      希:我懂了。
工作先生:而且我只在旁邊沒人的時候糾正當事人。
蘇       希:你不想在眾人面前讓他們難堪。
工作先生:對阿。
蘇       希:謝謝你,工作先生。我可以感覺你是個很棒的老闆!
