There's a language where crisis means opportunity. Or language means crisis. Or where you can languish in a critical opportunity. It's all good.
By creating chaos and poor communication, you actually set yourself up as a person who can repair such things. Because you know the root causes for the chaos (look in the mirror), you can also legitimately claim to have solutions for them. That = promotion!
Think of it this way. You get into work and when nobody's looking, you go out to the parking lot and slash a VP's tire. You make sure to leave at the same time. A little chit chat with the VP on the way to their car and, what, there's a flat? It's a good thing you noticed it before they drove off. By a stroke of fortune you have a tire repair kit in the backseat of your car. Imagine the luck! Dispatch a peon from your group to come out and repair the tire (you only get on your knees for one reason), and who's the hero of the day? Enjoy the country club membership and expense accounts.
