When you can’t trust your management team, people look for every signal they can find and then interpret the signal in relation to the worst that can happen.
When you can’t trust your management team, you start looking at the meetings you are attending and question the content of the meeting. Even if the meetings before were stupid and accomplished nothing, now the same stupid non-accomplishment meetings are interpreted as bad news on the employment front.
When you can’t trust your management team, sudden changes that would have seemed to make sense a year ago no longer make sense. And the dispersion of teams among other teams on failed programs now look like a way to reduce your capacity for accomplishing anything with the new team. So you’re expendible.
