Not the sexual-harassment, let-me-tell-you-all-about-my-open-relationship new boss (B), a different new boss (T)! Both of them a bit useless.
Yeah, I think she could have handled it better. She probably feels that she has to establish her authority, being both new, younger than me and inexperienced in this particular area. And having to justify the expense of hiring an external coach for an all-day seminar to teach us what our in-house coach P usually teaches in an hour (and much more coherently). Only, our in-house coach P used to be T's boss when she was a trainee, and our new director B is currently in what used to be P's old job, so for complicated pecking order reasons, I think T was probably forced to look for outside expertise.
