We just went through a round of redundancies and still awaiting final details of who is going and the organogram. During the process, my boss asked how I felt about leading this team of 4 people. I was honest and said I had concerns because of x, y and z but that I'd like to know what options were available. My boss said "we didn't have this conversation but I will consult with you and x as I don't want to make this decision on my own. My colleague 'x' told me she heard there was a meeting next week and when I asked my boss, she said "I don't have a clue, sometime this week", yet she is practically the decision maker so surely she should know? Do you think that means I am not managing said group she was talking about? Does this mean she is not likely to consult me to see what I think? I am due to go on holiday on Wednesday and have heard nothing. I don't want to come back to any 'surprises' but I feel I am now not in the loop or being considered. Would u think the same?
Thanks
