As it’s important for leaders to give constructive feedback, in order to help their employees grow, develop their skills, confidence etc.. which results in organizational growth. Similarly, It’s important for an individual to ask for feedback instead of waiting to receive it. Start thinking of feedback as the fuel for your professional growth. In fact, set a goal to solicit feedback regularly instead of waiting for it to come to you. When you begin to see the value in regular feedback, your manager will find it easier to deliver, and—using these strategies—you’ll find it easier to receive, assess, and apply. Let’s take a look at how you can ensure that your future performance conversations are positive and productive.

• Identify the behaviors of receiving feedback

• Assess the ways of responding to feedback
