It's pretty freeing to realize that most people have no idea what's going on and that includes who you may perceive is at a high level. (Almost) Everyone has to report to someone and once you get past three levels from the top, it's like playing a game of telephone where the people at the top start with gibberish in the first place.
Do your best, learn every day (or don't), and don't be so hard on yourself. Nobody has any idea what's going on.
Everyone has to answer to someone.
Underlings to their managers, managers to senior management, senior management to C-suite, CEO has to answer to the board and shareholders.
Yeah but once you're at the level of senior management the answers can just be some buzzword biz nonsense and people will gobble it up.
Until the YOY numbers aren't meeting targets and then you start sweating.
No, you just "seek new opportunities" while collecting your fat severance compensation.
