In that case an external person kicking your butt can be particularly useful, perhaps even more than in other situations. I think this butt kicking thing can be a way of acknowledging and avoiding your own biases and motivated reasoning to stay in harmful situations that stall your career.
This is true, but perhaps it’d not extrapolate so well for everyone—I can imagine the risk of making the butt-kicked person just feel even more pressured. But if you really master the Art of Butt-Kicking (I’d say “softly butt-kicking,” but it sounds creepy), I see how this can go well ;)
