I need help please, context below:

-The AM team is newer, formed about a year ago. Only 1 of us had actual AM experience at an agency.
-A new VP of Account Management starts, observes the team and they’re not happy with us. Overarching feedback is our whole team is too passive.
I excel in leading by influence vs going to a place of power which I guess could be seen as “passive”? What would you do with such broad feedback?
