I once had dreadful manager that I didn’t work with for very long. I remember getting to a meeting on time with a senior executive colleague. I started the conversation because my manager who was supposed to be joining us was about 10-15 minutes late. When she arrived she burst into the room and launched into the meeting without apologising. And then after a flurry of talking out loud. She left early leaving me to apologise to the senior executive for her behaviour. So embarrassing…..

Do you think she lacked awareness or was this an intentional power move?

Hmmmmm. A bit of both? I think she thought she could behave that way because she was senior but had no idea if the impact on her reputation and and other people
