Erikson illustrates this with a story of a Red colleague who ended a phone call abruptly after determining he wasn't needed. 'When asked a specific question, they often say exactly what they think, without any frills,' highlighting the unfiltered honesty that can be both refreshing and jarring in different contexts.
