Need advice:
Anonymous
Need advice: I LOVE conducting researches & putting together recommendations myself. Also what the project is trying to accomplish right now also doesn’t really need more than me.
However, my lead designer (not my direct manager) seems to like to be the “research guy” because he has been recognized for this expertise for a long time at this company.
I feel dragged down by having to go by him first before I could even share to the team.
He’s very reserved person, So I don’t really know how to even interact with him.
I feel uncomfortable around him because he also oozes out a depressive & contempt vibe.
I wish I could own my projects, but I am also new to the company.
Not sure what’s the best strategy to maintain my autonomy while not offending him & not alerting the team that we don’t have the best dynamics.
I don’t wanna move so soon because I do enjoy the projects.
Would appreciate advice ?
