I read this comment before reading the article (something I often do) and it intrigued me enough to read the actual article. Then I realized that the article is just saying “talk to people when you start a new job”. If that’s an issue for any manager, regardless of my seniority level, I’ll know I’ve made a wrong decision to join that team.
Cool, happy to inspire!:)
I think the advice in the article was excellent - to the point that your summary quote does it some injustice. But my comment regarded some edge cases, among which the case when a new leader would be compelled to take a job even if workplace was in some disarray. Obviously, if one can pick and choose then it doesn't apply.
