After 3 weeks in your new job, you notice that team meetings are not well organized and there is no follow-up to the meetings to ensure the tasks are being accomplished. Notwithstanding-the-fact that you are the new guy and you don’t have much creditability; you decide to send your supervisor an email and request a time on her schedule for you to talk to her.

Quite honestly, your performance has been equal to; and in many cases, exceeded the performance of the teammates who received promotions. In fact, your work has been recognized by the CEO of RPRG on numerous occasions.
