Okay, so let's say you put yourself in the shoes of being a, an as an associate.

So somewhere slightly more along in the career, we've got people who are reporting to you as well as you are reporting up further in that chain as well.

And, uh, an analyst has just produced a piece of work for you, uh, worked on maybe a model, uh, that they sent over to you, and then shortly afterwards they've sent it straight on to the vice president vp who's slightly more senior than you.

Right. But in your review of it, you found there's some errors in it.

Yeah. Some quite substantial errors.

So how would you go about handling that situation? Yeah, this is a difficult situation.

It probably feels a little bit personally upsetting that someone has done that because it doesn't seem very considerate to immediately go, go, like, send a document.

What, what's the point of that? Sending a document to you and someone more senior at the same time.

There's not much point even being sent to you.

So I'd be a little bit, you know, that personally, that that's, um, that's diff that's difficult situation, but it's important to approach it still in a professional manner.

So the first thing I would do is to email or contact or in some way communicate with the person up and just say, hi, I've already looked over this. And there's quite a, there's, there's quite a few things that just need to be corrected.

Um, it's important not, not to, not to be upsetting to the person beneath you. So just say, I'm, I need to correct a couple of things.

And so please don't, don't, don't feel free not to lift it yet, and I'll send it to you. Once it's been thoroughly edited.

I then get in contact with the person who's produced the work and say, okay, I've noticed these errors.

And show them how they can, if they, if they don't know, maybe show them how they can be fixed so in the future they don't happen again.

In terms of that issue, which I spoke about at the start of how someone has communicated with both you and the person above which we've already established isn't the most effective use of time, I'd maybe communicate to them in a very light, lighthearted manner that that's not the best thing to do in the future.

Go one step at a time.
