How to Get Feedback That Actually Improves Your Skills

In this episode of Career Skills with Fexingo, Lucas and Luna explore why most feedback fails to translate into real skill growth and how to fix it. Drawing on research from the Harvard Business Review and a case study of a mid-level marketing manager at a Fortune 500 company, they break down the concept of 'feedforward'—a technique that focuses on future behavior rather than past mistakes. Lucas shares a specific framework: ask for feedback in the form of one thing to start, stop, and continue. Luna challenges the traditional annual review model and offers a simpler alternative: the two-minute feedback request after a meeting. They also discuss the psychological barriers to receiving feedback and how to train yourself to seek it proactively. By the end, listeners will have a concrete script for soliciting actionable feedback that actually moves the needle on their career skills. #Feedback #Feedforward #SkillDevelopment #CareerGrowth #HarvardBusinessReview #Fortune500 #ConstructiveCriticism #AnnualReview #ContinuousLearning #ProfessionalGrowth #ManagerTraining #CommunicationSkills #Leadership #PerformanceReview #FeedbackCulture #Business #Careers #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
