Is it appropriate that my boss asks my teammate to validate my data work, and CC's me on the email instead of addressing it verbally?

My supervisor requested that my teammate does a quick validation on my work. He didn't ask me to explain my logic or even talk to me verbally about my teammate and I validating it together. Instead, he sends an email, with the project sponsor CC'd, to have the other analyst validate the numbers. It feels very disrespectful to me. I am not training, and the project sponsor is not in a department the other analyst is familiar with; so I don't think he can develop a full picture.



Is this normal?

    I doubt this is about the quality of your work, specifically, as much as standard, objective quality assurance review.

  • Since it is normal for some industries, and abnormal for others, it would help to have an idea of what kind of work you do. Also, do you see it happening for others in your company?

This is called getting peer review.



It is very normal. I would never send anything to my boss without a peer review attached. This isn't about you being right or wrong, its about having more than one person look at it. Peer reviews are pretty much an industry standard.

  • Um, that does depend on the industry. And we don't know if it is standard for the OP.
