They aren't just a stooge for the next layer up, brought over from their boss's previous gig. Every executive has their "enforcer" guy/gal that they bring over so they themselves don't have to do the trench work of actually managing people. Seen this movie so many times.
- oraphalous 7y agoI once had a manager try to recruit me for this purpose... literally tried to feed me what they wanted me to say when discussing implementation approaches - so they didn't look like the one trying to push an agenda... Hinted at a promotion if I played ball. When I gave my own opinion instead - they stopped talking to me entirely... So, yknow - disobedience had its upside.
