That “95%” number sure could use a citation. I’d put it optimistically at 50%.

- xyzelement 6y agoEmpirical percentage of times someone complained to me about their boss when their boss had at least something of a point. To be fair, both companies I've worked with have been very conscious about culture and quality management, I could accept that the rate is somewhat lower outside. But doesn't matter, the point is - most people think they are doing great and refuse to hear anything even if it can help them and everyone.
- ironmagma 6y agoMost people know their weaknesses but refuse to admit them. The question though is whether the “deficiency” passes the threshold needed to become an actual problem. It’s trivial to find a fault in someone (anyone), blow it out of proportion, and tell a story about how it’s losing the company money — we are all human and imperfect. It is a dubious question then whether the boss has “at least something of a point,” it needs to be enough of an issue to actually matter, which most of the time it isn’t.
