At a turbulent public meeting once I lost my temper and said some harsh and sarcastic things. The proposal I was supporting was promptly defeated.
Losing your temper in a meeting can happen to anyone, but it’s important to reflect on the situation and handle it professionally to maintain trust and respect in the workplace. Here’s how you can recover from such an incident and prevent it from happening again:
1. Acknowledge and Reflect
- After losing your temper, take a moment to reflect on what triggered your outburst. Understanding the underlying emotions or stressors will help you recognize and manage them in future situations. Was it frustration, feeling unheard, or perhaps external pressures? Reflection is the first step toward self-awareness and improvement.
2. Apologize Sincerely
- If your outburst affected others, it’s important to offer a sincere apology. Address it promptly, either in the meeting or afterward. Apologize for the outburst without blaming others, and take responsibility for your reaction. This demonstrates accountability and maturity.
Example: "I apologize for raising my voice in the meeting earlier. That wasn’t the right way to handle the situation, and I’ll make sure to manage my emotions better moving forward."
3. Stay Professional
- Even after an apology, it’s crucial to remain professional in your behavior and communication. Ensure that your tone and actions reflect a commitment to improvement. Reaffirm your desire to work collaboratively and contribute positively to the team.
4. Learn Stress Management Techniques
- To prevent future outbursts, practice stress management techniques such as deep breathing, mindfulness, or stepping away momentarily to regain composure. If you feel frustration building up, take a mental note and try to shift your focus or calmly express your concerns instead of letting emotions take control.
5. Prepare for Future Meetings
- Before entering a meeting where tensions could run high, take a few moments to mentally prepare. Clarify your points of discussion and anticipate potential challenges. Being prepared helps you stay calm and articulate your thoughts more effectively, reducing the likelihood of frustration.
6. Turn It Into a Growth Opportunity
- Every mistake can be a learning experience. Use this incident as an opportunity to grow your emotional intelligence and improve your conflict management skills. When you handle challenging situations better in the future, it can strengthen your leadership and communication abilities.
Losing your temper happens, but what matters is how you respond afterward. By addressing the situation with self-awareness and professionalism, you can rebuild trust and improve your emotional management skills for future interactions
