I shipped something users (internal) loved and the users were pushing adoption across the company. My leaders didn't consider it shipped. They never talked to the users. Didn't care. It needed perfect alignment with the org and needed to help the org's plans. Not the company or users across the company.



I'm not sure this demonstrates the issue without more context. If the people meant to use it were happy, what problem did the "leaders" have with it? Was it a huge moneysink whereas it was supposed to be an extra income source or like what kind of issue even


The users were happy, but you didn't get paid, or got fired for using company time out of assigned scope.
