Counselors are trained (hopefully) to avoid being an authority and try to have their clients process their issues - without giving them information that the client can't access themselves.
I don't think that it's possible to act like that.
I also don't think that acting like that would produce any value, because it would actually mean doing nothing at all.

people turn to psychics for some serious life situations. many are looking for information to base their direction on, they feel they have incomplete information and go looking for it outside of their selves. maybe it works for some people ok.
People wanted to patch their problem of feeling of incomplete information that reduces their confidence is different from people getting data to make rational decisions based on that data.

Most people don't make rational data based decisions anyway.

Talking about this in terms of “bad news” or “bad judgment by business leaders” seems archaic. It’s like describing World War One as “a serious diplomatic concern.”
