Today was the very last day of a 40M $$ decision to be taken, but turned out that whatever analyses I did became wrongfully calculated and the client couldn’t take any decision over these analyses as claimed. Then turned out that our calculations are actually so correct. At the end, I felt so used for whom to blame game that the client played.

Haha @McK that is good content +1

Lol did they think it was wrong because they couldn't articulate what the hell you were saying? Because same

You put some analysis together for something that needed to be actioned today. The client said "hey no this isn't what we wanted," and made an incorrect decision as a result. In digging deeper, you were right all along, but the client won't admit it, and you feel bad about it.

Am I reading that right?

PwC1 is absolutely right. You did the analysis you were hired to do. Don't carry the weight of a decision that is not yours to bear.

What did I just read?

This month I have come to facing that reality that I need to leave my current company due to lack of growth within my career path staying in sales and business development. Primarily no opportunity to not relocate to work remote. Not interested in switching to marketing or enablement there. Interested in advisory, technology consulting, project management or remaining in business development in Chicago. Anyone open to sharing where you are/what you do for a referral and advice?
