What Should I Do When My Colleague Overpromises?

“Sometimes I hear my boss promise things I know we can’t deliver. I know he’s just trying to reassure the client and land the sale…. I want to correct him, but I also want to respect him—especially in front of our clients. Is there a way to correct someone so gently it won’t be embarrassing?” - TGC
