Everyone has an child inside them. Today, mine chooses to take action subconciously at a certainly wrong time. seriously today i am shock to see how defensive i am if i am challenge. I know that in an ideal situation, i must remain calm, take a deep breath, listen to the opinion and then react in a professional manner. I totally embaress myself today. Fuck! I am new in this company and as a manager, i am entrusted with a lot of things...one of it of coz is the entertainment. From what i observed, management seems to 'pamper' me and have a good perception on me. This at the same time, raises some eyebrows and also i can see my colleagues talking to me less and less. I cant blame them as my automatic reaction due to the pamper is to be a lil bit cocky. Which bring me to the situation in the meeting today. I was presenting my studies on a project and halfway through it, a junior executive (3 years in the company) raises his hand and start bombarding me with question. It is so negative rather than constructive to a point where i got very annoyed. My face turned red and i automatically raises my voice. I notice everyone is getting uncomfortable so i pretended to smile and laugh and said "OK, point taken" . Fucking embaressing moment so far in this new company and certainly not doing me any good, because i will now be labelled as emotional, cocky and mr know it all. I gotta do some damage control, however i am not letting this junior executive to get away with all his "we cant this and we cant that" .
OK, moments over.
