There was recently a change in leadership at my company and this leader set up meet and greets with a handful of us. I thought that was a nice gesture, but in the meeting they didn’t introduce themselves or care to get to know us. They instead pointed out all the things our team should be doing and actually started bragging about all their accomplishments. Is there a way to survive under this kind of leadership? I feel like there was no respect given in that meeting and feel terrible now.

There’s no solution to this other than leaving right? If someone doesn’t care about their first impression it’s a huge red flag

This is my motivation to get out!! Why should I take orders from someone who doesn’t care to know my name or even my job?? Shouldn’t they know that before making changes?

Usually changes in leadership to a bunch of conceited bragadieres who tell you what you gotta change to accomplish their goals doesn't go well, but since they didnt let any of you go apparently you should consider yourself fortunate especially in this brutal job market. Do you know how I have survived all these years its by happily doing whatever they tell me to do and exceeding bosses expectations

Yup this is exactly it. They just want to come in and “transform” things, which usually just makes things worse for the department, but looks great on paper and gets them promoted

I’d start keeping your eye out for other options. These sorts of people are never fun to work under.
