[quote=Anonymous]It's acceptable if your organization says it's acceptable.  I'm making the assumption the boss in question would be able to hold his temper and not raise his voice to a client/customer/his boss so clearly he has the ability to do so but elected not to use that self control in the office discussion.

So the real question is why was the person not in control of his emotions?  Was it embarrassment when she clarified a piece of information?  Was it pressure from his boss?  Oh and as a side note, if a woman supervisor raised her voice and was yelling, they would say she was PMSing and overly emotional, but now because a woman is saying a man is doing so, she is overly sensitive and he is just letting off steam.  Bottom line isn't getting some half -a^^ apology but getting the person to acknowledge he wasn't in control of his emotions, why, what would he do different next time and does he want an environment where people are afraid to come to him with important information or not?  There has to be some incentive, gee whiz, this is why it's important not to yell at folks and get to the bottom of what's going on moment.[/quote]
