I’m in the situation the article is talking about where I’m both suggesting advice and willing to do the work. But it requires me to have some allotted time and the boss says we don’t have the resources even 1 hour a week.

It’s like we’re moving chopped wood from the forest to the village and I suggest building a wheelbarrow but the boss says what we don’t have time for that we gotta move all this chopped wood. It’s crushing to have a job that could be very interesting but the tooling and processes sap all of that out.

Aye, someone full of ideas for other people to take ownership of isn't actually being helpful (unless that's explicitly their job)

You can’t know if you are going to change something. So, just talk and let there be a chance of being heard.

This is a better way to say it.

Talking at the right place at the right time on the right topic is.
