Daily Planner: Culture of Error Management

The daily planner ‘Non-Violent Communication When Dealing with Mistakes’ comes from Al Weckert’s workshop and brings together two things that are usually kept separate: your daily routine and the way you treat yourself when things have gone wrong yet again. In DIN A5 format, it fits neatly on any desk, and because each sheet is printed on both sides and designed to be torn off, you can simply grab today’s sheet and pop it in your bag along with your tablet or laptop when you’re on the go.

On one side, you can plan in a practical way: tasks, appointments, emails, phone calls, personal matters, breaks and exercise – you can even tick off whether you’ve drunk enough. On the other side, the actual training awaits: six tools to help you deal with mistakes in a way that doesn’t involve self-reproach. Reflect on your attitude towards mistakes, apologise ‘giraffically’, translate accusations into needs, come up with solutions, use a breathing exercise as an emergency plan, and find a way to let go of feelings of guilt.

The set comprises two blocks, each containing 25 double pages, making a total of 50 daily planners.
