What you'll learn

Do you struggle to find value in feedback, especially when it's delivered poorly? In this course, Seeking Context While Giving Feedback, you'll learn to unlock the true potential of any feedback you receive. First, you'll explore techniques to avoid "snapping the gap" and bridge the space between words heard and intended meaning through clarifying questions. Next, you'll discover how to shift your perspective from feeling forced to agree to embracing feedback as an invitation for meaningful conversation. Finally, you'll learn the "G.A.S." mental technique to give grace to the giver, assume positive intent, and seek to understand valuable insights, even when the delivery is flawed. When you're finished with this course, you'll have the skills and knowledge of effective feedback reception needed to transform feedback into a powerful tool for clarity, alignment, and personal growth.
