"Caught by surprise" = bắt gặp bất ngờ -> làm ai đó giật mình, ngạc nhiên khi họ không biết.
Ví dụ
Maybe I was caught by surprise because I knew so little about Twilight beforehand (trước, sớm) – I hadn't read the reviews, assuming I'd never watch them.
While Netflix is constantly raising prices across its subscriptions internationally, it also debuted (cho ra mắt) a cheaper $3/month plan for mobile-only users in India back in July. The company seems to be caught by surprise by the success of the new tier (phân loại) and is looking to introduce similar inexpensive options to other low-income markets.
At the 30,000-foot level of the corporate suite (dãy phòng), plotting (lên kế hoạch) digital change is heady (hăng hái), exciting stuff. Business leaders can almost smell the gains (tăng) in efficiency and speed and the data-driven increase in customer satisfaction. But success depends less on inspired strategic (chiến lược) planning than on the way people on the front lines (tiền tuyến) implement (thực hiện) new digital tools, and most leaders aren’t laying a foundation for those employees to succeed. In large part, that’s because senior managers don’t have any idea what really happens at the ground level. So when tools don’t get used the way they’re supposed to (or even at all), data-driven insights prove unremarkable (tầm thường), and anticipated gains fail to materialize (trở thành hiện thực), companies are caught by surprise. Their digital transformations become digital flops (thất bại).
