Mi Amor ♥️🌹
34 days agoIn a quiet town, a well-respected company held weekly team meetings every Monday. At each meeting, the CEO, Mr. Adewale, reserved one empty chair at the table. New employees often wondered why it remained unoccupied, but no one ever asked.
One Monday, a young intern named Tolu finally spoke up:
“Sir, why do we always leave that seat empty?”
Mr. Adewale smiled and replied, “That chair represents the customer — the person we all serve. Even though they’re not physically here, every decision we make should consider their needs, their feelings, and their experience.”
The team went silent.
Years later, Tolu became a manager. In her own meetings, she too placed an empty chair at the table — not just for the customer, but also for integrity,empathy, and responsibility. She understood that leadership isn’t about power — it’s about remembering who you serve and the values you carry with you.

Moral:True professionalism means acting with empathy, responsibility, and purpose — even when no one is watching.
