“We've got to know the whole truth to solve the problem, because the parts you leave out may be the problem." Notable Moments

00:34 Creating a culture where honesty is respected and not punished.

03:50 Truthfulness builds trust and credibility in leadership.

10:12 Build integrity early; admit mistakes to supervisors.

11:45 Always inform leaders promptly about any potential issues.

 

Telling the truth is ALWAYS worth it. When I began my journey in leadership and management, there were moments where telling the whole truth felt almost impossible. Over time I learned that every challenging conversation is a step towards stronger, more authentic relationships and a thriving professional environment.
