Well said, Tessa! This has been my experience forever. We are often disliked, totally misunderstood, acknowledge the importance of getting buy-in and working collaboratively but much prefer to work alone to get the job done and done right. I couldn't agree more what you said about emotional sensitivity. We absolutely don't make it a reason not to do the job and because of this, we're often and mislabled with low EQ while others are not labled as oversensitive! I was told by my last supervisor that I was too direct in my communications! And I worked on the Communications Team. !!!
