> one of the best thing about attaining Seniority at work.. you don't have to worry about proving yourself to anyone

but to reach Senior, you must head nod a lot when you're junior (and then later research it yourself if interested), because otherwise you'll likely be deemed stupid and won't make it to Senior.




Not only deemed stupid, it can also be perceived as an attack by making the presenter "look bad" and up in retaliations.

People remember how they felt a lot longer than who was factually correct.
