Today, social media is sure to blast the news far and wide when a top leader makes a mistake, whether the person is in the private sector or public life. Recently, a discussion about leaders who benefit from showing genuine remorse when things go wrong prompted me to think about how we can all learn from such a situation.

I have been writing a post about 9/11 every year. Maybe because 9/11 comes right around the Jewish High Holidays, I treat my archive of posts a little like a prayer book.

I've often written about how to get a job. But now, I'm going to write about how to leave a job.
