One impact of getting rid of capable managers in many HC10 locations is that the high paid Houston Execs are getting exposed. Nobody knew what they did before and now everybody knows for sure because they don't understand their own organizations and only seem able to make increasingly d-mb decisions based on nothing more than a feeling.

In recent meetings with VPs I have heard them make multiple factually incorrect statements in a single meeting. The part that is most bothersome is the confidence they have when making the statements. They think they know and are clueless. Meanwhile I am stuck thinking how do I get them to walk back that statement now that they have made it in such a public setting. You can’t correct them real time as that is a fast train to PIP to call them out or make them look as stupid as they actually are. Totally corrupt and rotten culture. They want sunflowers who parrot their lies.
Your feedback will be that you can’t tailor your message to the audience and are too technical. I’ll be bringing Crayola Crayons and coloring books for my meetings with executives from now on.
The more exposure I have to executives the lower my opinion of them falls
It is embarrassing to be talking to an EM exec and she asks you to “please explain your last sentence, I did not understand any part of it.”
@OP or something they were told by a 'consultant'...
@OP Pretty sure a lot of people knew they were worthless.
Problem is that all you oil guys do the same $hit when you get hired elsewhere.
"capable managers"???!! in EM?
More than a Feeling!
