I have a particular employee,who whenver she makes a mistake and i point it out,she just shuts down.
i dont yell or insult her,i try to point out the mistake ,get an aplogy and a promise to not do it again,but man she just shuts down,looks at the c\ground cradles to the ground and starts crying,and I dont know if any thing i say can even be heard let alone heeded.
i wonder how i should go about this.
a good example,is I usually stock the office pantry with food,one time i saw her take a whole box of biscuits to her office,
i went and told her,that thats wrong.
at first she got defensive,and said she had only taken ir but she was going to put it back,
I explained to her other workers would not be able to acess the biscuits if the whole box was in her room,I pointed out that if someone else took the whole box of biscuits and she couldnt find them she would also not like that.
as i was explaining this,she had already curled into a ball,she then became a matyr.
"Ill never take anything again"
I told her,she is elecome to take biscuits anytime,just not the whole box.
she repeated that she will never take anything again(like a kid throwing a tantrum,poor me,the world is so unfair).
anyway,she started crying and i couldnt get an apaology or a promise not to repeat the same mistake.
i left her crying and came here to ask the wise men
