Problem Statement
What would you do if your boss had a crazy idea that you think will fail? / How do you handle disagreement with leadership?
Explanation
If my boss proposed an idea that I believed would fail, I would request a private meeting to respectfully present my concerns with supporting data, alternative suggestions, and a clear analysis of potential risks. I would focus on the idea itself rather than criticizing my boss personally, and present my viewpoint as questions like asking what have we considered regarding certain risks rather than flatly saying it will not work. Ultimately, if my boss still decides to proceed after hearing my input, I would support the decision professionally while preparing contingency plans.
