      I have a supervisor who likes to tell stories during presentations & meetings on how ppl in our company made mistakes in the past, and the mistake cost them their promotion. I think he is trying to let us learnt from other ppl's mistakes.

      But the facts of the stories he tells is often distorted and wrong! It happened quite a few times. The mistakes in the stories he related did not happen that way. I know the facts too as I have worked with him for the past 10 over years in the same company.  

      I wanted to correct him during the meeting but did not, I know it will embarass him. Should I tell him thereafter, or by email, or leave it as it is? I dun wanna step on his toes, but at the same time, I don't feel comfortable that my colleagues are learning through distorted facts.

      as long as he is yr supervisor. jus listen.
      doesnt matter what story he tells. even if its about the three bears n goldilocks. the important things is the msg he is trying to put across.
