What To Do When Feedback Feels Wrong
Not all feedback is helpful. Sometimes it's vague. Sometimes it's self-serving. And sometimes it hits a nerve even when it doesn't feel true. If you’ve ever been told something like "you're not strategic enough" and didn’t know how to respond, this episode will help you find your next step.
I’m sharing how to handle feedback that feels off, how to keep it from derailing your confidence, and what it really means to manage perception as a leader. Feedback is just data. What matters is what you do with it.
In this episode, I’ll cover:
- How to respond when feedback surprises, triggers, or confuses you
- A step-by-step framework to shift someone’s perception of you
- Why perception management is a leadership skill, not a vanity play
