I’m dealing with something similar but am still learning how to deal with it. I just document everything (great for my ND brain) and when they say something that’s critical of a miss, I document that it’s never been discussed so when I have a touch point with senior leaders, I show them that and inform them this is a pattern and it’s important for them to know that the manager’s attention to detail and poor leadership are valid concerns as they affect your work and the work of the project.
I was explicitly told that using such tools would a waste of time. So I stopped using it… often the mgr refuses to have a proper check in and just drops stuff between meetings. Probably falls under the may not help category
