“Offering feedback can be difficult and it is immensely valuable. Constructive suggestions are absolutely necessary in the workplace,” says Nina. “Unfortunately, hearing that things need improvement has the potential to evoke self-protection, making people reluctant to listen and engage.”
In this talk, learn tips from a variety of disciplines to offer helpful feedback in a way that reduces pushback and defensiveness.
