SC1 I am really trying, but this account was sold as a mess. And now there is a lot of people involved and the last thing they want is to have to change delivery leads due to the optics. Which is why my option is just to get out. The question is which way?

Could it possibly be that this engagement is stretching you more than you’ve ever been before. I had to deal with a terrible client for about a year but I came out learning so much stuff and incredible reputation out of it. While in it I was frustrated as heck. Just something to consider

Roll off and fire your client. We have plenty. They will still pay the bills.

Looking for guidance. I’ve been in people manager roles (in director/senior leader capacity) for the last 5 years now, and prior to that I was a “rockstar” Project Manager. I’ve worked really hard to get to the position I’m in today, but I’ve been recently asked to move from my current role to a senior IC role to take on a highly visible Program for the company, with some very senior stakeholders. I feel conflicted as it does feel like I would be backtracking in many ways. Thoughts?

M/SM and above, why do you label a meeting as “touch point” or ask if you can have a “quick chat” when it’s something serious?

But at my new job, my boss asked for a “quick chat” to literally ask me to change the title of a meeting and then chat about christmas. Now that I’m in management, I want to understand it better.
