Receiving feedback tips

  • Practice smart vulnerability (open at the right times in the right wat to competent and kind people) so it is easy for people to speak to you anytime

  • Be curious about your own behavior and blind spots. Ask for as much detailed information as possible
  • Let the deliverer know how the feedback is affecting you and if it is too much that you would prefer a second session to hear the remainder of the feedback
  • Paraphrase what you think you heard
  • Thank the person and seek specific suggestion for further action
  • If feedback is re-directing you in some way and you can see the validity of it make a commitment to change you behavior and follow up within a few days and report on what changes you’ve made
