Committed to ensuring Greg technical direction reaches Justin
Situation
Committed to redirecting Justin to follow Greg architectural guidance on object storage/depot, and to be the conduit ensuring Greg technical direction reaches engineering clearly. Greg flagged that depot work was not in line with past directives.
Reasoning
Value organizational alignment - when CEO has given technical direction, it needs to reach all levels. Justin was not defying Greg; he simply lacked the context of past directives. Protecting Justin by framing this as a context-sharing issue rather than insubordination. Maintaining role as bridge between Greg vision and engineering execution.
Additional Context
Greg expressed concern in #distinguished-leaders that architectural decisions were being made contrary to his past directives. Peter committed to firm up understanding of where object storage is being used and ensure Justin gets direct context from Greg.
Observed Evidence
Direct quotes: Again Ill go though my notes - probably have to talk to Justin... Ill take care of it. Happy plugging you into Justin so he can understand your guidance directly Greg. its not going easy on him. its just giving him the context thats been given others. I wont fault him for picking a different architectural direction than youve mandated if he hasnt been told. After that - Ill expect the line to be held regardless.
