An urgent email from the boss. A request involving money. Would your team pause or act right away? 👀
Any request involving finances, account changes, payments, gift cards, or unusual urgency should be verified before action is taken.
Call the person using a number you already know, confirm the request through a separate method, and never rely on the email alone.
A familiar name, email signature, or urgent message does not always mean the request is legitimate.
Use this scenario at your next team meeting and ask: What would your employees do next?
