How to Rebuild
a Bridge You’ve
Burned

Q

Recently, we had a major reorganization at my company. One of the down-
sides is that I now report to a guy I reported to several years ago when I
started with the company. I used poor judgment in a couple of situations and
it made him look bad. Fortunately, I got a second chance under another man-
ager and I never expected to have to report to him again. Now that I do, I
realize my future success depends on me making amends. Only, I’m not sure
how and could really use some tips from you. What would you advise?
