Elements of an Effective Apology (58:16)
Professor Roy J. Lewicki is the lead scholar in the study of trust development and trust repair, negotiation, and conflict management processes. Lewicki is the author of 40 books including textbooks on negotiation. Apologies are important tools in resolving conflicts and repairing relationships.
