When the numbers didn't add up, Marcus stopped the meeting
We were fifteen minutes into a client presentation when Marcus noticed a projection error in the revenue model. He could have let it slide — the client hadn't spotted it, and pointing it out mid-deck was awkward at best. He paused the presentation anyway. He said, "Before we go further, I want to flag something." It was a two-minute detour that saved us from building a six-month plan on a wrong number. The client thanked us for it afterward. Marcus's instinct to do the right thing even when no one was watching — that's integrity. That's us.
