When I look at you I see intelligence, competence, and passion. You think strategically and immediately see the big picture. I've always heard your reputation for shutting people down. You've always been all-in on every hand you're dealt, and surprised others aren't. They're right. You aren't a manager. You're a leader. They've been using you wrong for years.
This is my thinking as well. This upper boss even admitted you can do better than him. Sounds like he is a bit intimidated by you.

This is how my father was, always knowing more than his commanders when he served in WWII. When it came time for his ship that he was on to go back out on another tour I of duty the commander would not have my father go on that tour.

It ended up saving his life because that ship was hit by a torpedo and all the men in his unit were killed. Had he gone he would have also lost his life. I would not exist to write this post.

Nothing wrong with improving your behaviors. Yet you can change the lacks in others.
