How do we get better at receiving and learning from the feedback we receive

  1. First practice asking for feedback. “What could I do or stop doing that would make it easier to work with me?” - What’s your go-to question? (40:00)
  2. Embrace the discomfort. Don’t get defensive. “Listen with the intent to understand, not to respond.” (41:49)
  3. Reward the candor. Publically. (45:25)
    4. Coaching in Kim Scott’s life (47:15)
