"I'd do what I always do. I'd ask as many clarifying questions as I could to make sure they hadn't thought of my approach already and decided against for reasons I may not be aware. If they didn't think of my approach, and it seems clear it might be worthy to suggest, then I will. I am the type of person who holds myself accountable for my actions and inactions. So, if I don't, I have to live with myself while wondering if I could have done more. So, once I fact gather, I'll make my suggestion, and in doing so I am contributing every way I can in that scenario. Whether they run with my suggestion or not is up to them. They're the boss. They are paid the big bucks to find the best route to our success, and I'll support them and the team any way I can."
