Ever receive a slap on the wrist for something that felt innocuous?  After eagerly responding to an email addressed to her after recently joining a new company, today's caller received a response from her manager that she did not expect.  She was told, in no uncertain terms, that she should not have responded and was given little to no explanation why.  She was left feeling confused and demotivated.  In today's episode, we'll dive into how the manager in this situation might have handled this opportunity to provide feedback differently. We will also share some practical tips and outline the steps that one can take to learn and grow from an experience like this in a productive way - starting with a reflection into the personal impact of the situation and then moving towards having an open, positive and productive conversation with their manager if faced with a similar situation.
