## What Jamie wrote

The title of this article caught my eye. Dietrich combines an array of experiences and highlights the patterns that he has seen "highly overrated" people exhibit.

> 1. “Overcommunicate”
> 2. Be Bossy and Critical
> 3. Shamelessly Self Promote
> 4. Distract with Arguments about Minutiae
> 5. Time It So You Look Good (Or Everyone Else Looks Bad)
> 6. Plan Excuses Ahead of Time
> 7. Take Credit in Non-Disprovable Ways

Many of these things would be easy to spot, but a good read particularly for managers to keep an eye out for some practices that are meant to mislead and obfuscate.
