Senior managers are senior liars

Usually, the biggest lies become visible to us when we are about 10 years old. Santa is simply your father with a beard, there is no tooth fairy, and eating carrots will not improve your vision.

However, there is another lie that becomes visible only when you grow as a manager. It suggests senior managers are way smarter, more focused, more productive, and overall better than others.

Once upon a time, I believed that my CEO was superhuman. But as I gradually climbed up the career ladder, I realized that, in fact, they are just as human as we are; they are simply trained to do things that are not always obvious.
