Question from audience:
How do you nurture a willingness to accept or seek feedback in others? And than get them to take action on it?
The most important answer is much simpler than it is easy: Show me!
- Demonstration is key. By actively seeking out feedback, and taking action on it, you will naturally show them how seek out, accept, and take action on feedback.
- Their goals? Help them see how a specific shift in behavior will get them the result they
- Criticism is hard! Provide support and encouragement along the way.

Interesting question because accepting and seeking are two VERY different things. Nevertheless, I like to “lead by example” and as a manager the combination of encouragement with constructive criticism goes a long way. Sometimes it can be tough to do #2–but I can see where that is key.
