There are two types of people. Given the following situation:
Your supervisor has assigned you to complete some task by a certain time, say the end of the day Friday. The end of the day Friday comes and the assignment is not finished.
People in one group, afraid of disappointing the supervisor, will do nothing and tell nobody.
People in the other group will contact the supervisor, explain that the task is not done, take responsibility for not completing the task, and give an estimate for when it can be done.
While it is quite obvious which group is the right one to be in, it is easy to fall into the first group.
TBL: DON'T! Professionals communicate to people when expectations are not met and take the appropriate responsibility.
