When your words don’t land well, don’t leave them hanging.

Follow up.

Miscommunication happens to everyone, but ignoring it can create lasting friction in relationships and teams.

Follow up by asking, “Did that come across the way I intended?” or “How did you interpret what I said?”

This simple act clarifies misunderstandings, builds trust, and strengthens connections.

Leadership isn’t about getting it right every time—it’s about taking action when you don’t.
