Bank brought a bunch of consultants over to NYC. They didn't have workstream assignments for us, but insisted that we travel to NYC.

Was basically vacationing in NY for 3 weeks or so, until I got assigned a workstream.

Clients with toxic cultures: how have you dealt with them? We have a compliance client with a serious culture issue- they regularly throw each other and our team under the proverbial bus, throwing escalations around etc. I am one of the junior partners and suggested having an open dialogue with our C-suite contact to discuss constructive ways of working, at the very least… but the senior partner has vetoed it. Our team morale is pretty bad and we’ve had a couple of people leave because of it.

This past couple of weeks I’ve received some feedback that projects I’ve sold have not been delivered to client expectations. I’m often present but not leading these teams as I am very fragmented across projects, sales and general leadership responsibilities. This negative feedback is making me believe I’m not good at my job and causing tons of self-doubt. Is this imposter syndrome? What should I do?
