44.Catherine shared a story of her son on LinkedIn,an online social platform. A few weeks ago,Catherine asked Thomas,her 12-year-old son,what he would like to be when he grew up.Thomas said he wanted to be a Lego (樂高) designer.The next day he appeared with a letter,written in his"best handwriting",asking Lego if he could work for tjye.aim.He wisely shared that he'd be available to help with designing Legos after school,on weekends,and in the holidays-and that his sister would be keen to do the same. His mom put the letter in the mail but also tried to manage his expectations.She told Thomas that the company probably wouldn't respond though Lego would appreciate his letter.According to Catherine,"He looked disappointed." Then a package arrived from Christian Pau,the vice president and general manager of Lego U.K.jye.ai Ireland.Inside was a Lego kit (模型套裝) and a handwritten letter that said:
Dear Thomas, Thank you so much for your letter It is great to see how excited you are for Lego building and your creations look,fantastic! We would love your help to design even better products,but unfortunately all our product designers are sitting in Denmark.We would still love to invite you to visit us in our Slough office (together with your sister and parent) for a juice/tea/coffee and a tour of the building. Let me know what time works for you! Christian
"Seeing my son light up with pride at the beautifully crafted (制作精美的) letter,"Catherine wrote,"was something I won't forget."And neither will Thomas.Christian Pau didn't know how Thomas might react to his letter.He simply took the time to respond.It was a small moment to him,but actually a big moment for Thomas.As Catherine wrote,"Thank you...for making my son see that it's always worth trying."
