[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can you create a business case w ppt, graphs and such? I’d also include a graphic of your track record you mentioned there (0/6). I’m not joking. Leading a horse to water etc.[/quote]

I've done something like this before. It gets ignored, or "hindsight is 20/20, we didn't know that then." And then the next occasion I have a suggestion, it gets dismissed. Rinse, repeat.

As for pp who asked if it could be my tone - I really don't think so. In fact, it might have been too passive. The more I try and be more assertive, the more one of my siblings resorts to personal attacks, and the others say nothing "to keep the peace."

I just can't win.

But at the end of the day, when I go to sleep at night, I'll know that I'm right - that's worth at least a little bit  :? [/quote]

OP, this doesn’t sound like a birth order problem, but rather a sibling personality mismatch. Try to figure out a way to manage these personalities. If you keep blaming it on just being the youngest, you won’t get anywhere. [/quote]
