Something that I first applied to working with children, and have applied in a limited form to working with adults: you don't need to tell someone when they read your instructions wrong. Sometimes it's enough to point out what they did right and then whatever they didn't do? You ask them to do it in more precise words, and you make it sound like it's a new request. Remarkable how fast things get done this way.

This is also a habit I built up from emergency response training. If I say "I need you to bring me a first aid kit and an accident report" and you bring me just a first aid kit, it's so much more efficient to say "thanks now can you bring me an accident report" than "I asked you to bring an accident report why didn't you bring me one".

Once you've internalized "a person bleeding out is one of the worst times to start an argument" you start to wonder what other tasks could get accomplished without arguing

Also! If you've given what you think to be a process instruction, but it's not necessarily in process format ('I need x, y, and z done' versus 'can you do y, so you can get to x and then z?') check in and see how they're meeting your request rather than assuming they're dicking around. And if you *do* jump to correction before checking: APOLOGIZE if someone moves in a different order than you expect.

I can't tell you how many times I'd have saved myself from looking like an ass (and sometimes a belligerent one) if I'd checked in before trying to 'correct' someone
