The Story
In Abu Dhabi, a sponsor said, “Let’s see.” The team didn’t chase. They sent a pilot plan that made approval easy. A week later: green light.

Cultural Principle
Ambiguity often means “make it easier for me to say yes.”

Takeaway
When you hear “we’ll see,” respond with a low-risk pilot and clear ownership. Reduce social and operational risk.
