This just confirms for me that all the MBAs and executives are completely bias in their decision making. Call it recency bias, exposure bias, they only remember what they heard of being "news" worthy in the company. These "sales" tactics gets your name out there and the bias takes hold accept that self promotion.

Can't wait for AI to come in and answer the question, "if weekly summary report can be automated from emails, which team lead should I put in the PM position, so the project doesn't get fucked up". Oh man, we can do away with so many executive positions.
