96. How Feedback Fuels Success with Jessie Jarvis

In today's episode I dive deep into the importance of giving and receiving constructive criticism.I share my experience raising my two kids and the parallels between parenting different children and training horses, where different approaches are needed for different individuals.In this episode, I outline several key strategies for receiving criticism effectively, including shifting mindset to view feedback as an opportunity rather than an attack, pausing before reacting, and listening for the lesson rather than focusing on delivery.Regarding giving criticism, I share guidance on delivering constructive feedback kindly and directly. This includes leading with empathy, using the feedback sandwich approach (positive-critique-positive), being specific in feedback, and choosing appropriate timing.Resources & Links:Join The Directory Of The WestGet our FREE resource for Writing a Strong Job DescriptionGet our FREE resource for Making the Most of Your InternshipEmail us at [email protected] the Of The West Email ListList your jobs on Of The WestConnect with Jessie:Follow on Instagram @ofthewest.co and @mrsjjarvFollow on Facebook @jobsofthewestCheck out the Of The West websiteBe sure to subscribe/follow the show so you never miss an episode!Mentioned in this episode:Raising a champion takes more than feed.
