		<description>In my opinion, it is nearly never ok for the salesman to get upset in front of the client.   I don&#039;t see there to be anything to gain from blaming your team or blaming an outside force.   As the salesman you are the expert, the pointman, and the general.   You&#039;re responsible for everything that goes on as far as the client is concerned, so don&#039;t get mad - get to work.</description>

		<description>great post. we need to focus on solutions and stop wasting time on archaeological digs to find out where to point our fingers.... however, it seems that mistakes made due to communication issues from client to team are easier to smooth over than blatant black and white errors that happen in production - especially if they happen repeatedly to the same client. when is it OK for the salesman to get upset (publicly)?</description>
