I have a question about this episode Rewind: Julie Zhuo: Facebook's former VP of Product Design on what she got right and wrong as a leader... and this clip Letting Go. This part really hit home with where I am at in my business as CEO: "Creating dependency by solving others' problems can hinder their growth and make you the bottleneck." Can you explain what this means in the context of leadership and business?
What does it mean when you realize you may have been making a mistake or taken criticism in a negative or defensive way on a project, as discussed in the episode 225: Kim Scott | Care Personally, Challenge Directly with Radical Candor and the clip Bad Bosses Impact? How should I handle a situation where I feel frustrated with a manager who rarely gives me the space to explain and often asserts herself during presentations?
I'm also frustrated about how I acted—responsive and thankful but also annoyed—when Kaitlyn suggested I do something differently. Overall, I have a weird relationship with one manager at work. I'm going to change how I've been acting. I'm just an intern, but it's not obvious; everyone else loves me, and I love them. It's just this one person, and I need to change my attitude. She rarely gives me the space to explain and often asserts herself in the middle of presentations without letting me continue. It's very different from everyone else there. While it's useful in some ways, it's also frustrating. I'm proud that I recognize I need to adjust to her behavior. Will this change help her loosen her resistance too?
