Amazonians reading this: I'd like to know how often does it cause someone to rethink their proposal when you use the magic words "disagree and commit"? Does it ever happen?
I mean consider this scenario: A, B, C, D, E are in a meeting to discuss a new project that A has planned. D and E like the idea. B is not committed either way. C says they can't see the project being a good thing but uses the magic words "disagree and commit". How often does it cause A to go back and say ok maybe my idea was not good?
In reality it's more like 'agree and submit' to the manager/pm making the proposal. Don't want to do the work because you find it goes against morals or personal beliefs? That's fine, they'll pivot you out of the company real quick.
