With special regards to the Glenn and Datu situation, she seemed to have never considered to defend them from their own technological eagerness to fix things sooner than latter for the sake of the colony. I personally know how techies operate, they are often too optimistic while neglecting the risks especially if there is only one more little step to go. CJ has known Datu for more than four months and should have considered that.
Yes! Most definitely this ^^^^^^

It's one of the reasons managing techies can be so challenging. On one hand, they'll have something that "can't possibly fail" so they don't take proper precautions or prep correctly. On the other hand, something "would never work" and gets put off or ignored until someone else actually does it (causing big ego wounds).

More points against CJs real world leadership skills. And more for her background as a "but here it is on paper!" type...
