Re: The Dangers of Being Right (a lot)
Excellent post.
It is important to be able to recognize the difference between a black and white situation, and a grey one. Black & white has a right answer. 2+2=? Grey doesn't. Red is the best color to mark danger. Many engineering types have a hard time with grey questions, as they run contrary to our training, which tells us there is always an optimum answer. If you want to be a know-it-all, then either really know it, or do the research to make sure you're right before answering. Being right a lot can make you overconfident. Again, beware. I wish I had known this when I started my career. It took 15 painful years to figure this out. I'm OK now...
