[quote=Anonymous]Once, when my (fantastic) boss was on vacation, I had to go in his place to a meeting with his boss and some other management-level people. The topic was in my team's area of expertise, and I outlined a plan at the meeting for how to proceed. In front of a bunch of high-level people in my organization, grandboss makes a big, loud fuss about how happy he was to be wrong about thinking it was a waste of time to have me at the meeting but how pleasantly surprised he was that I added so much value. At the time, I was the most highly rated person in the department. The meeting was about something with which I had a lot of experience and expertise. It was mortifying. Of course, he was asked to move on a couple years later and I'm now one of those management-level people, so I guess it worked out okay.[/quote]
