I will let the leader feel your firm attitude, and the leader will not deliberately embarrass you. Moreover, in this case, leaders generally don't just talk to you, but talk to many people and find the person with the least firm attitude to negotiate post adjustment. So, don't be timid because the leader talks to you too suddenly, or even obey the company arrangement without thinking. Of course, a firm attitude should also pay attention to ways and means to avoid conflicts between openness and leadership, otherwise it will easily hinder the negotiations between the two sides. If you don't negotiate the post adjustment later, you will spend a lot of time and energy to repair the relationship with the leader.
This method also applies to the situation that the leader needs to transfer you to other positions because of the company. When the leader talks with himself, you can spend a day or two getting to know clearly, making a form of pros and cons analysis, figuring out what kind of abilities you need and who is more suitable for that position, recommending people with such abilities to the leader, and then telling the reasons why you are not suitable for this position. After hearing your logical and clear analysis, leaders will generally seriously consider other candidates recommended by you. Even the content and reason of his conversation with others have been planned for him. Such considerate subordinates are of course for themselves.
