Sorri if this is slow but can you elaborate what is here it is about not being blamed, as in its easiest to shift any blame to the lowest rank officer? But you know, in some org they will not bother going after small fry, they will look for who is the bigger fish(es) in reporting line and whether that person(s) also contribute some responsibility… u mean it not liddat here?

They are responsible for assessing what their bosses wants, adapting to the changes in what their bosses wants, conveying it to the rank and file, and ensuring the instructions or other kpi are carried out smoothly

By the way your salary range a bit off? Dont think all TLs and Div heads paid that much unless you including bonus

Later on when u finally come up with something that is what they claimed that they want, when clear with the bigger boss and when the bigger boss see something not clear, your that immediate bosses accuse u of not being clear and then turn table and ask u what exactly are u proposing.

wth are all govt agencies like that? when i was in pte sector my bosses know exactly what they want and have very clear directions.
Cos in pte sector, it's PnL pressure, you must produce the chicken. Here you only need to imagine the chicken

To you is act… sometimes the more I watch them, I realise that for some of them, they repeat their own beliefs to themselves so much until they are really convinced it correct…

Plus… what u describe has happen before to others as well…
