Dear Entrepreneur,
Endeavor to be transparent.
Recently, I had an interview with a business magazine and I was asked very difficult questions about my personal and professional lives. While answering the answers, I made sure my answers were honest and polite. I didn’t lie to cover up my mistakes, especially when the journalist asked questions that clearly pointed mistakes I had made many years ago when I was much younger.
Never feel the need to hide things that you have the freedom to disclose. Instead of hoarding information and being secretive in order to boost your own power and reputation, tell the truth, and let others understand that you’re capable of making mistakes and owning them as well.
With love,
Chidi
