If you've ever hesitated before giving or receiving feedback, this episode will change your perspective. When handled right, it strengthens confidence, deepens relationships, and keeps your integrity intact. Most people botch this - either they sugarcoat it, making it useless, or they come in too hot, destroying rapport. The key? Be honest, but not brutal. Soften, but don’t sugarcoat.Here’s how to do it like a pro:Know the Science – When we get feedback, our brain triggers a fight-flight-or-freeze response. Recognise it, expect it, and don’t let it derail the conversation.Ask First, Tell Later – Instead of assuming, ask: “How do you think you did?” This builds self-awareness and gives you leverage.Break and Rebuild Rapport – Tough feedback naturally creates distance. Your job as a leader? Close the gap before they leave the room.Future Pace – Feedback is about the past. Growth happens in the future. End the conversation with clear next steps.If you master this, you’ll become the kind of leader people respect - and the kind of professional who rises fast.Loved this episode?
