I've ended up business-friendly with a couple of my CEOs because I wasn't afraid to tell them what I really think, but it always scared my supervisors when I did. I'm cringing imagining your mountain. I've definitely been buried under that.

I think I helped them stay connected to the people when they were talking numbers. Factoring in people can changes your whole approach a situation. It sounds like you already have the respect of at least one of the boneheads. Hopefully you'll be able to help keep them connected to the people aspect of the business.

It's definitely one of my small things I aspire toward. While I'm indifferent or at least not that impassioned about the products we sell, I think understanding the person with 3x less of your paygrade is imperative to having your whole business model not fall apart
