The key is to provide followups with real thought and your solution. Don't get into fight and personal, you need put other people in your shoes.No matter what, a company needs a result, not just throwing out openend question that isconsidered a trouble maker.If you want to get through it, you need change your stylefrom being expressive to being drivering.As thing already happened, go for it.
As I know some VP likes people think as executive when company in a tumbling situation.I admire your courage that is somewhat we chinese lack.
