โฒ 49 โผ what's a good answer to placate the c-suite if you're accused of lacking motivation and being unfriendly? (lemmy.ml) submitted 1 year ago by sarah2653@lemmy.ml to c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml 14 comments fedilink hide all child comments cross-posted from: https://lemmy.ml/post/37060682 my only motivation to be there is to earn money and my 401k. So many of my coworkers and management feel offended by this statement. I'm union. Union lawyer thinks this is a management strategy to try to manipulate me. Cue BS answer for any c-suite that tries making me feel insecure over this: well, I'm a terrible liar, that's why I'm asking you :D the unfriendly party might be easy: I'm always friendly and direct because I want to work. maybe that?

Change the priority or assign more resouces. You pick. One always has to hold management accountable but it has to be done in a nonconfrontational problem solving way. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [โ] HubertManne@piefed.social 1 point 1 year ago (1 child) they expected more than that.
