Giving tough feedback is not fun, but what's the cost of avoiding it?

Christie Barany shares a time when she became a manager of a group of peers, a notoriously tricky transition exacerbated by a low performer who had never been given feedback. Hear how her confidence and sheer force of will in doing right by the company, the team, and the individual were tested by process and nepotism to result in a positive outcome.

This episode reminds of the value of tough feedback. While it's not the fun part of leadership, it can be some of the most impactful work.
