Summary

If you lead a team, your product is your people — and the way you critique their work determines whether they improve every week or start hiding their drafts from you. In this episode, Brian breaks down a feedback framework from the Stanford Design School and applies it to leaders running service businesses: three rules for giving feedback (critique the work, not the person; open with questions; check your personal preferences at the door) and three rules for receiving it (stand with your critic, never get defensive, and remember that silence is golden). Plus a simple two-rule challenge to run in your very next review conversation. -- Get on the list to receive Brian's monthly newsletter: https://nodaysoff.com/subscribe/ Tune in to this podcast every weekday morning for 10 minutes or less as Brian shares lessons and stories about how to make positive changes in your life and business, one day at a time.
