The president probably already thinks the report is "yours" even if you haven't formally been told that. So take ownership of it, and if this other guy screws up again correct it.


I have said in office conversation that we need to do a better job as a team communicating what is being done (I do what I am supposed to do, I'm just being nice). He just doesn't get it. I responded and copied everyone and basically said that I have made the corrections and we will speak again Monday regarding proper protocol.

I think I am going to suggest to my VP that I simply take this over. The 15% or so that he does isn't that much more on my plate.

That's probably a good idea but you still should have let the president know it wasn't you that made the changes, unless the guy that made the changes reports to you.

Exactly this.

Of course, the VP will then expect you to review the work of anyone else, but that is how you climb up the corporate ladder.

The president already expected this to start with, so you might as well formalize it.
