Yes, but the word backbone isn't being applied to disagreeing - the people being addressed are already disagreeing. The word is being applied (dishonestly, disrespectfully, and antagonistically) to "committing".
- ghaff 3y agoThe wording isn't really optimal. I think the intent is that you should show backbone and disagree with a plan if you don't agree with it but you should then commit if the decision ultimately goes against you. The basic formulation originally comes from Intel. The idea is that if you don't get your way you shouldn't constantly try to force a re-examination of the decision as often happens.
