Some things are knowable and don't need to be assumptions. In these cases, the author expects to have conversations that probe into what is true and what is false. But some managers are offended by questions that challenge their assumptions. They feel their position gives them authority to overrule the deductive reasoning of their reports. "Allistic" people sense this, and "up-manage" the egos and sensibilities of managers, without being aware they do it.
