Overchallenging
"Do I need to go down and get my certificate that says I am the CEO of this company to Get you to stop challenging me in this?"-Jeff Bezos being a jerk
While reading a story in an online issue of Entrepreneur I came across a story that talked about how Bezos like Jobs is a jerk sometimes to his employees. So why did this catch my attention?
I happen to have a boss with whom I differ on strategy very often. We even disagree publicly. I don't disagree without being respectful. He is the boss.
I might disagree and challenge my boss but the winner is our company. If ideas are challenged and the best ones implemented then the winner is our company. As long as the company wins then there is no such thing as too much challenging. If a boss has to pull out his certificate then that speaks of their weakness in persuading others that their idea is the best.
Today's question is:
"Do you overchallenge?"
