Honesty is the best policy

"I'd just assured them 2 months ago that their jobs were safe," Robert said, "and now I'm going to let them go."

In times like ours, when business conditions are changing so rapidly, the "truth" can be a fleeting thing.

I always believe in operating in an honest mode. Honesty gives me valuable leverage. Honesty is simply more productive, especially in our cynical, skeptical culture. People can smell a fraud in a second.
