My pet peeve:
"Could we have a meeting with your coworkers so you convince them this is the best course of action?"
I'm not a salesman or an evangelist. I'm a tech person and actually the local expert in the subject, a fact that you constantly advertise to the board. If you trust me, make a decision, it's your job.
Instead of that, you book the meeting, make me explain what we should do (that you vehemently agreed on before) and, when the others frown (the juniors because it's work, the seniors because it's change) you reverse the decision and quickly rebuke me and tell me we'll do it gradually (=never).
