I can so relate to this when working in C-level sales and those in positions above me pushed me to chase opportunities I knew were a waste of time. They liked the idea of the deal or the $$$ in the pipeline but had no interests in my intuition. Luckily it wasn’t my own $50K lost but in a way if o could have spent the time working to close viable projects I could have had a better commission check!
