I was using that as somewhat of a euphimism for the leader that doesn't know anything, but likes being correct and pretending he does. He does this by saying "let's do that", or worse, "I am going to tear up your memo and humiliate you by requiring you to take a class because you're wasting my time", which is pretty deep on the ego scale to say that to someone. It might be better to just reply "I'm having a little hard time following this part about X, can you summarize this and what would you decide?" or something.
