We learn and grow when we know how we are doing, and, for most of us, our go-to method for figuring out how we are doing is to rely on the feedback of others. Still, many of us generally find giving and receiving feedback uncomfortable. How come? And, does it have something to do with the word itself??

Key Takeaways:

  • There are differences between criticism and feedback, and one of the key differences is context. We need context!
  • If you are asking for feedback, be specific about what you want feedback on.
  • Feedback is so one-way! It feels like you just have to sit there and take it. It’s time to reframe feedback as a conversation.

Bonus Takeaway:

  • While we all love sandwiches...no more sh$t sandwiches! Take the bread off and get to the point.
