I think that’s the other issue…sometimes organizations don’t even give middle management a chance at being competent. I’ve been at my current employer for 2 years. Our department has had 3 different directors and I’ve had 3 different managers; so clearly we have not had any semblance of clear vision or strategy. I used to support a client group of 3 directors and now they are all gone and I support two new directors. My new manager is new to the organization and asked me what coaching or feedback I’ve had. Ummm, none….and if I did have any, none of those people are here anymore anyways!
