Book Summary - Thanks for the Feedback (The Science and Art of Receiving Feedback Well)

No matter what stage of preofessional life we are in, the performance cycle is a period that many of us find difficult. Some of us go through it and get done with it, and some of us listen and try to understand the feedback, but few of us listen and understand the feedback, before applying it to our growth journey.

But how many of us know how to do it. How to listen to feedback without any bias? How to act on the feedback positively and learn from it?

I had the same questions, and the answer is simple! I found it in a book called “Thanks for the Feedback: The Science and Art of Receiving Feedback Well”. It’s a brilliant book written carefully by Douglas Stone and Sheila Heen.

Now wherever I go, I recommend (read force!) everyone to read it, or at least give it a try. But we all are leading a busy lifestyle today, so if you can’t find time, go through the attached summary and thank me later.
