Someone gave me feedback the other day. But they didn’t just hand over comments.
They took the time to understand what I was actually solving for. Then they shared a revised version based on what they thought could help. And they added a short note: no pressure if this doesn’t land, feel free to ignore it, this stuff isn’t easy.
I felt elevated by the way they carried themselves through the whole thing. It was one of those experiences when the exercise of receiving feedback felt like a pleasure.
It made me think harder about how I give feedback myself.
Much to learn, I have.
