On Hearing and Speaking the Truth
I’ve worked at two kinds of companies in my career:
- those with open and honest communication
- those whose communications better resembled Soviet-style propaganda
As a manager, I’ve always considered accurate information one of my most important assets. I need to know where we are and what it’s going to take to succeed. My team has standing orders to let me know as soon as they figure out that they’re not going to make it so we can adjust the plan.
