tanakahisateru I may have said it before, but the most important thing in teamwork is the confidence to grandstanding. I may have said it before, but the most important thing in teamwork is arrogance, I agree with you. Without confidence (in oneself), one becomes afraid that one’s abilities will be seen as low and becomes poor at relying on others, or conversely, one refuses to think because one is not a specialist and throws the responsibility to others.

tanakahisateru I guess that’s the first thing before methodology, awareness seminars, scrum masters, etc. Instead of going to your colleagues who brought methods that you seem to have difficulty with and asking them to teach you more about what makes them happy because you want to motivate them, you try to bring them down by saying that you don’t understand what’s good about this stuff and only mentioning the bad points.

tanakahisateru Supplemental: Self-confidence is not just a kind of brazen baselessness, it is an awareness that has grown through the acquisition of skills and other factors so that the type of person who is already capable of objectively seeing his or her incompetence has grown enough to not have to worry about it. It is an awareness that a person who already has the ability to objectively understand his/her own incompetence has grown through acquiring skills and so on to the point where he/she does not need to be afraid.

tanakahisateru Self-justification by people who can’t be objective is the same as people who immediately get angry when they don’t understand something inconvenient.
