How do you handle senior stakeholders who undermine your authority in front of the team?
Encountering a situation where a senior stakeholder undermines your authority can be a challenging and uncomfortable experience. It's essential to maintain professionalism and not react defensively in the moment. Instead, take a step back and assess the situation calmly. Understanding the stakeholder's motivations can be key—perhaps they have concerns about the project or feel their expertise isn't being adequately considered. Recognizing this can inform your approach to addressing the issue and help you maintain the respect of your team.
