The Name on the Work

How publicly would you correct the story?

The Name on the Work

You and a colleague create something valuable together. Most people assume it was mainly your work, and your career begins to benefit. Correcting the story would give them proper credit but could cost you the first real break you have had.

How publicly would you correct the story?

Then ask

  • Would a private apology be enough?
  • What if your colleague had once taken credit from you?
  • Which success in your life feels less earned than people think?❯

The classics and some new ones. A scenario, the question it forces, and the follow-ups that make it bite.
