Handling the typical overstepping stakeholder?
He’s new. I am new. I have a mandate to whip my very inexperienced team into shape. He is taking this opportunity to overstep and control direction.My take he is overzealous, looking to make a mark and wants to do it at my teams cost.
He liberally uses AI to generate crap policies that I have had to fix after he dumped it and moved over to anew idea.
I have tried cutting him out from most of teams work, but he still talks over me publicly in leadership meetings where i literally have to shut him down, politely of course.
Now he’s trying to drive the direction from behind the scenes and I just dont have the bandwidth to handle all of his “ideas”
How do I proceed?
