Do you often meet people during meeting whom will say "That is wrong" or disagreeing and when you ask why? They will just say something along the line "Whatever".

How do you deal with these type of people?

it means you have ZERO influence on their compensation and/or promotion

the moment their compensation and/or promotion depends on your input

WHATEVER you say
these people will say, You Are Right
even when you are 100% wrong

so to deal with such people

be their boss
or
be their boss's boss

otherwise

You Are Wrong
whatever you say
even when you are 100% right

usually such people will not listen to other ideas , only want others to listen to them and follow them.
in such case, going forward, any meeting, just keep quiet...dont even bother to bring up suggestions.

Preferred response is " Sorry I am wrong "

/s

Not everyone can put up useful discussion or counterpoint.

So it is now suck up to your Boss and disparage those down your line.

I guess it is an good thing to uniquely identify Singaporean.

Now everyone can broad a PHV and %%%% the driver.

I will usually add: "I may be wrong and I stand corrected if so. But I have never been in doubt."

Maybe all of us should just say "You are wrong" and follow up "whatever" to conclude anything.

Should include this in "How to be a politician?"

Not exactly word, but better sentences to tell the citizens they are wrong and whatever they say is of no use.
