“I was wrong.”
Daniel looked around the lobby.
“Many people make the same mistake.”
Everyone listened.
“We live in a world where people often decide someone’s value before learning their story.”
His voice remained calm.
“A suit does not create intelligence. Expensive shoes do not create success. And simple clothes do not mean someone has achieved less.”
The employees listened carefully.
Nobody felt attacked.
Instead, they felt challenged to think differently.
Rebecca invited Daniel to visit the executive floor.
But Daniel first wanted to speak with the workers.
The engineers.
The technicians.
The people who actually built the company every day.
He walked through the factory and greeted everyone.
Many employees were shocked.
