I like, "I'm sorry - am I misunderstanding something?" And then give your evidence they're lying.
Leaves the door open for you to be wrong (because you could be) but puts them on blast because they know you've seen through their bullshit.
"Am I misunderstanding this email from last month where you said X?"
Always get everything in writing. Also helps with making them think twice before committing to a lie in the first place.
this is a great tactic. Admitting that you don't know everything allows you to respectfully challenge a norm or assumption without looking like a know it all.
Hahaha - I don't intend this to be offensive, because I talk & think exactly the same way - but this is the most "tell me you work in corporate without telling me you work in corporate" sentence ever lmao
I swear it must seem like we make up the lingo as we go sometimes.
Hope we can circle back on this later to leverage our brainstorming synergies. I'll send out the minutes to stakeholders in a bit. 😛
Oh man, listen to Weird Al's song Mission Statement. I love that it exists.
