Most people have spent years studying feedback — the frameworks, the techniques, the dos and don’ts. But almost nobody has ever been asked one simple question before receiving it: How do you want feedback?
That’s the focus of today’s episode. Brett breaks down why this single question might be the most underrated communication tool in your arsenal — and why it works on a level most people never think about.
It’s not a hack. It’s not a trick. It’s old-style values that the noise of modern leadership advice has buried. And once you start using it, you’ll wonder why you ever walked into a feedback conversation without it.
What You’ll Learn:
∙ Why most feedback conversations fail before a single word is spoken.
∙ How one question disarms defensiveness and gives you useful intel at the same time.
∙ The difference between catering to someone’s preferences and surrendering to them.
∙ Why this is power dynamics in action — and why that’s a good thing.
