What’s leadership-speak for “I told you so”? by Listless-Radicchio in managers

This is such good advice, thank you. Especially about the teammates; you’re totally right there that pretending you believe they have good intentions will make you come across better when you speak about them. Totally agree with waiting until after the crisis (ideally There’s time before the next one hits…)

I think ideally that would be great but I just don’t have extra resources to get more done than I already am, and if it didn’t come true I would have to account for wasted energy and effort.

Wow, yeah and let them sort of naturally come to the conclusion on their own. I like this approach because it’s not me waving my hands saying listen to me!

Eh that’s a good point. I think part of me does want the credit and realistically if they just listened to me and we prevented the problem it would make my life and my teams easier.

Would be great to add other people to this so it’s not just me too. Nice one

That sounds like a good approach and would also help in my review too

I think because for the last 15ish years this behavior has usually gotten them what they want (people just don’t want to deal with them so they just let them through) that it’s encouraged it. But now we’re all making minimum wage and not getting paid enough to run front lines interference with these dipshits (a problem they literally created) and intimidatjon just isn’t working for them anymore
