Sounds like malicious compliance.
But electronic forms can be easily ignored. If so, I'd follow up with printing it out and handing it to the person responsible for handling it. If it's not handled immediately, then also deliver it to their boss. And so on. It has to actually be painful to the bureaucracy so they want to change it.
Applied to this example of course changes, you could do something simple like changing the title or intro and then physically going to each other person and telling them they need to approve the change.
Then innocently change it again right after approval. ("What? It's a WIP! I have a responsibility to make updates to teach the course in the best way.")
Bonus points to get other co-workers in on it so you're not the problem-person.
- CoastalCoder 5y agoI think "malicious compliance" is sometimes a misnomer. I.e., when the goal is the common good rather then malice.
