SFS Minute 1032: Keep your Word

from School for Startups Minutes

This week, we are talking about success skills that are often underrated. Sometimes we call them silent superpowers. Maybe you're not great at leadership or sales, but you're great at something else that's not as flashy. Those are the opportunities that you should pursue. Double down on what you are good at. So today, I'm going to introduce another underrated success skill. I'll do that right after this. One business skill that never goes out of style is being honest, keeping your word, and doing what you say you're going to do. It's also completely free. Your reputation isn't built during great success or crises. It's built during everyday moments: calling when you promise, delivering on time, showing up, and admitting mistakes. It is an old-fashioned skill that people notice all the time. They also notice the opposite. Be honest and do what you say.
