I should listen to feedback? - Sally-Anne Airey

We’re told listening to feedback is a vital leadership skill. Being evaluated by colleagues is a core part of our professional development. But what if understanding takes more than listening to, and agreeing to fix, what’s “good” and “bad”?

In this episode of Delightful Dissent I’ll be talking to Sally-Anne Airey about the assumption “I should listen to feedback”. We’ll explore what it means to engage with others with compassion. We’ll see if there’s more to feedback than an objective evaluation. We’ll share ways of turning feedback into something which opens up, not closes down, possibility.
