Of course, I just became the lower level boss this week and didn't realize that my people were so loud and pushy until now. They stood in a circle with me and kept yelling excitingly over each other and me about their great ideas now that the mean, stuborn, and unreasonable boss was replaced with the pleasant, open minded, and forward thinking boss. They all agreed that I was the best person to be promoted and they didn't really want to be in charge anyway but how about we do this and this and won't it be great when we do my great idea...
Of course, I'll take their ideas into consideration, but the loudest ideas won't necessarily win with me.
