"The last time I disagreed with a supervisor was only a few days ago when our department was divided into teams to perform a priority fast-paced project with a quickly approaching deadline. My supervisor assigned everyone specific tasks. However, two individuals on our team, I felt, were assigned tasks that weren't in their wheelhouse and would slow down productivity, requiring a bit of hand-holding. I suggested four people be reassigned according to their unique skill sets and motivators. My supervisor asked me to gather those four individuals, and we had a quick huddle. He suggested my approach to them and asked them what they thought of it. They all uniformly agreed, and it was done. My supervisor thanked me and said they were grateful that they could always count on me to support the team. We came in ahead of our deadline and there were a lot of high-fives and pats on the back afterward."
