Just realized my VP doesn't care about my fancy reports
I spent 3 months building this detailed dashboard for our quarterly review in Chicago, full of charts and projections. When I presented it, she just asked me one thing: 'What's the one problem we fix first?' She didn't even look at the graphs. Has anyone else found that simple questions cut through more than all the data you pile up?

Your VP is probably too lazy to read proper data.

Flip the whole "lazy" thing on its head - maybe your VP is actually too efficient, not lazy. If they only skim data and still make calls that work, that's a survival skill in orgs where nobody reads reports anyway. Real laziness would be digging into numbers that don't matter while the real problems sit untouched.
