I’m currently hiring for a project manager who will report directly to me but the c-suite executives I work for don’t have the same preference as me. Should I choose who I think will be best for the job or would I be politically shooting myself in the foot if I don’t hire their preferred candidate?

We need reasons. You having a person preference is different than if you think the person lacks technical competence. Why don't you want to hire them?

Think about the vote as a share, if you get 40% and each of 5 c suites gets 12% how does it add up?

My anxiety makes me good at my job. My incessant checking, and double checking, and analyzing has earned me praise, trust, and early promotions. Sometimes I wonder, if I were to take medication to give myself some relief, and to stop the panic attacks, would I be less productive? And then I wonder, do I value my own health so little? But I’m so validated by my performance...sad isn’t it? Hope I’m not alone.
