At some point in their careers, most people will have to figure out how to salvage a work-related decision that, in hindsight, led to a wrong choice. Whether it had to do with personnel, the direction of a project, or accepting or rejecting a new position, wrong choices are something just about everyone can relate to. However, the way you handle such a situation can determine whether you learn a valuable business lesson or suffer a setback.
