Agreed. I have held similar opinions of leadership at many of my jobs.

If you are so burned out that you can’t help but vent publicly, it’s time to go. It’s just not healthy for you.

But of course leadership is going to take care of that for you because it’s not healthy for the company either to have open dissent. And most of us are far easier to replace than a CEO

It's deeply unhealthy to not have open dissent.

That’s certainly not a universal take in leadership.

Disagree and commit is the manager’s take. Ok let’s hear it, but once the decision is made (by me) it’s time to STFU and just do it.

The disagree part often is just a way to manage your teams emotions. You didn’t get your way but you can’t say you weren’t heard. The leads always get their way.
