How we got this far in our podcast without an episode on this, we have no idea...but it's critically important at work and in life to be able to give feedback effectively and receive it gracefully.  Also, note that in the episode we reference Radical Candor which is by Kim Scott, not Jill Scott.  We will note better show preparation as feedback...
