Business:Careers
We’ve all experienced feedback that was unhelpful - but why was it that way? Supervisors want to motivate us, and bring out our best, but perhaps they don’t always think about the feedback they’re giving. Is it really helpful? Is it addressing the real problem? What’s the context? In this episode, we’ll look at how our perceptions can change how we respond, and why authentic feedback is genuinely helpful.
Show Notes
- Sometimes we ascribe motivations that aren’t there, causing us to provide feedback based on incorrect assumptions.
- A fundamental human trait is seeing the world with our own biases. You must be aware of your perceptual biases.
- Feedback is best when it’s based on tangible things, not just perceptions. Authentic feedback recognizes the difference between sensation and perception.
- Objective analysis will yield feedback that takes into account circumstances.
- Good feedback welcomes positive changes.
