Internal politics, cloak and dagger - world

What would Batman do a situation like this?

That was what came into my mind when I heard one manager confessing that he cannot fix one problem at his employer since the person to whom he would need to say about that, is equal level in organizational hierarchy to him. So there can be constant problems presented by situation, mocking etc but not telling the problem to stop this due being scared to talk to other person who has a same title.

Let that sink in for the moment, and then repeat it:

"Organization, and people within, can suffer when a manager makes a decision to refuse telilng other manager some things" Which one from those two is more important?

Got it?

Who is to blame on this kind of situation? the original wrongdoer? the manager who is scared? organization?

Unfortunately these kind of situations are not rare in corprate world. The twisted picture of successful person supports cloak and dagger, stomping into feet, extrovert, talking rather than doing. It is also difficult to see this, since in short term such a behaviour looks successful and thus the path one should take.

It should start from the top, to punish such behavior. The below video shows the correct way to react - preventative would be always best but sometimes reaction is needed and this is the way to do it:
