"Cuando estamos debatiendo un asunto, la lealtad significa darme tu opinión honesta, creas que me gustará o no. El desacuerdo, en esta etapa, me estimula. Pero una vez que se ha tomado una decisión, el debate termina. A partir de ese momento, la lealtad sig"
— Colin Powell
Simplified Meaning:
Imagine you are part of a team working on a big project. When your team is discussing how to solve a problem, loyalty means being truthful and sharing your real thoughts, even if you think your boss might not like what you're saying. Honest opinions can lead to healthy debates, which can help find the best solution because different ideas are considered. However, after everyone has talked and a final decision is made, it's important to stop arguing and fully support the chosen plan. From that moment, being loyal means putting your effort into the plan as if it were your idea, to help the team succeed. For instance, if your team decides on a marketing strategy that you initially disagreed with, you should still work hard to make it successful once the decision is set.
