You will hear a lot of people say that they would like to hear the honest truth rather than the diplomatic answers or lies. In theory, this sounds logical and only way humans should be interacting with each other.
But when somebody is really honest, how many really reward them for their honesty? Will you be honest or Diplomatic?
Candidates boast about their experience through their teeth during interviews and if the interviewer isn’t skilled enough to see through the charade, they will get that job (good for them). If the same candidate honestly says that he has experience in XYZ but not in ABC, he may be screened out right away. Happens all the time.
When you want honesty, make sure you are not penalizing people for being honest. An honest man is not so common. If you find one, make sure he doesn’t leave you.
Skills can be learnt fast. Character is built over a long time.
One Life. Live Boundless.
