We just wrapped a cross-functional meeting where everyone nodded, smiled, and said we’re aligned.
But the follow-up emails? Completely different interpretations.
I’m starting to think “alignment” is just code for “we’ll deal with the fallout later.”
How do you drive clarity when consensus feels performative?

A few things to think about. Do meetings typically start and end with the organizer being the only one to speak? Are the teams free to discuss and express any concerns or questions?

I've worked at a few places where this was the case, and the vibe or direction of the meeting was a one-way street.

Doesn’t sound people feel confident to speak up in the meetings and tell you how they really think which is real tough!

Hello Everyone.
I'm new to this app and still trying to figure how it works.
I'm a Customer/Supplier Quality specialist with 5 years of experience.

If someone can help me or point me to the right direction, that would be really great.

Anyone else just sitting around waiting for the ax to drop? I'm a soon to be 2nd year corporate associate who has seen work completely dry up. My utilization held pretty steady around 50% immediately after shutdown, but August was below 15 billables with no appreciable work in the pipeline. Aside from letting people know I'm available and doing pro-bono/CLE, it's starting to feel like a serious "covidcation" leading to termination.
