Tuesday, 30 April, 2024
I'm guessing you're here because you want to give feedback without being a jerk, right?Welcome back, listeners! In this episode, we address the delicate art of giving feedback. Building on our previous discussion on asking for and receiving feedback, we explore how to give feedback in a way that is empathetic, constructive, and respectful.We start by challenging the common notion that feelings have no place in business. Acknowledging and respecting others' feelings matters. We outline four key steps to artfully giving feedback:1. Check Your Ego: Feedback should not be about showcasing your intelligence or authority. It's about helping the other person improve.2. Check and Acknowledge Your Bias: Recognize that your perspective may be different from theirs. Consider their situation, resources, and priorities.3. Know Your Lane and Stay in It: Offer feedback only if your expertise is relevant to the topic. Don't offer opinions just for the sake of it.4. If It's Going to Sting, Say So, Then Be Direct: Be honest about the difficulty of the feedback, but deliver it respectfully and directly. Ask for consent before delivering the feedback.We emphasize the importance of being straightforward and avoiding sugarcoating. While giving feedback may be uncomfortable, it's essential for growth and improvement.So, if you want to learn how to give feedback that is both honest and respectful, tune in to this episode. You'll gain valuable insights on how to communicate effectively and compassionately in any setting.As always, thank you for listening and caring about making a positive impact.
