Well I didn’t spell out the full drama but:
1. It’s been more than a year and I’ve beat myself up, had coaching, and assumed I was the problem
2. This boss / situation is the outlier from almost every other role and I’ve decided to stop beating myself up about it (for context I’m mid career, worked at half a dozen places)
3. I have complete empathy for the boss. This situation is just different from past roles. They just need someone else in the role.
I admit, perhaps I failed, but life is short and I can keep beating my head against a wall trying to “grow” or move on.
