Restructuring Feedback
At work, feedback is necessary. It shows up in performance coaching sessions when a person is not sure how to do something or when a person is not inclined to do their research. The intention behind offering feedback is to influence change or modify behavior. However, when it is offered in the form of criticism, even when it is skillfully presented using a non-judgmental tone, people on the receiving end can still feel attacked, disappointed in themselves, or embarrassed. This can lead to reactions such as withdrawal, defensiveness, or even anger. When criticism is extreme, it can...

A second point in time leaders can develop the skill to recognize is knowing when to hold onto a position despite external pressures to fall in line. Then there is knowing when to let go.
