Too many times I have been the guy in the top left quadrant of the chart in the post. I eventually came to the realization that I have often been disrespectful to the intelligence and capacity of my colleagues. I am lucky that I get to work with smart people, and I have to remind myself that these smart people know what they are doing and don't want to do more work than necessary. This has helped me set my tone and ask better questions.
