Let people surprise you

I don’t trust people very easily.

But when I do, sometimes, I’m very pleasantly surprised.

A team member who leaned into an opportunity you gave them, that you honestly weren’t sure if they were capable of.

A recruit who didn’t seem qualified or experience, but more than made up for it with care and commitment.

That thing you really need help with right now?

The answer might be on the other side of giving someone a shot who doesn’t “deserve” it.

Let people surprise you.
