Episode notes
Personal Labels Break Feedback
- Feedback that labels personality (eg you are not a team player) is unhelpful because it’s not an action someone can change.
- Such person-based feedback becomes part of identity, making it effectively unfixable and harmful to improvement.
Ask For Actionable Measurable Feedback
- Demand actionable feedback: ask what specific actions to take instead of accepting vague traits.
- Request measurable criteria and timelines so progress can be tracked and judged objectively.
Prepare Emotionally And Translate Criticism
- Anticipate your emotions before a review and listen without letting ego hijack you.
- Translate vague criticisms into specific questions like what actions define a team player and how we will measure progress.
