How to overcome the fear of feedback.

We struggle to ask for feedback and we struggle to give feedback not because we don't know how to do it. There are 100's of tools online to help you to give feedback effectively.

But because either there is a lack of trust and psychological safety or we are letting our own fear and fixed mindset stop us from asking for or giving feedback. Fear can be personal or it can be collective within a team or organisational culture.

In this podcast I will offer a simple framework for asking for and giving feedback but before that I will help you explore what might be holding you back from asking for and giving feedback.

Understanding our own relationship with feedback first will uncover key insights to help us to move forward.
