Ultracrepidarianism

Ultracrepidarianism (noun): the habit or act of giving opinions on matters outside the scope of one’s knowledge.

Reminds me of the haiku from The Coaching Habit:

Tell less and ask more.
Your advice is not as good
As you think it is.

Don’t be an ultracrepidarian. Advice is a last resort.
