Here's how you can handle feedback without getting defensive or taking it personally.

The most important thing is how you are perceived from the organization. If you built your career on the goodness of your Company more than yours, it will be easier to give feedback directly and transparently. Then, prepare the meeting and listen actively

If the critique is based on authentic sources, then you must look at your personal development. However, if it's just devilment, you must ignore it. Listen to others and yourself also We too often have our imposter syndrome in our heads so stay positive. Be objective. Perhaps I haven't in the past, stay composed. Reflect privately and not allow others to manipulate you. Change your approach and implement changes that make your work pattern more efficient. As a measure of personal growth review always. Stay keen.

Practice by asking those whose opinion you trust. Thank them. Leave and reflect. Repeat. It's not easy, but it is never too late to begin developing this essential component to your emotional quotient (EQ).

Na minha experiência ao longo dos anos no mundo corporativo, atuando com pessoas, processos e tecnologia percebo o quanto o feedback é importante. E saber receber e dar feedback é ainda mais importante, pois é necessario saber separar o pessoal e o profissional para n?o encarar o recebimento do feedback como sendo uma ofensa ou crítica pessoal . Tem que ter maturidade emocional e profissional para saber o que faz sentido naquela conversa, pois deve ser um espa?o de escuta ativa, segura e respeitosa. Aplicar e receber feedback é desafiador, pois tem impacto na vida de quem aplicar e quem recebe.

???? I want to tell you an anecdote. ??? A well-known MMA fighter, Conor McGregor, is famous for his quote, "doubt me!" ?? Being driven by doubt, criticism, and even insults is the engine for our growth. ?? Live your life with this motto as well, DOUBT ME! ??

To actively listen to feedback, focus entirely on the speaker without planning your response. Acknowledge their points, paraphrase for clarity, and show respect. This ensures you fully understand the feedback and can use it effectively.

My philosophy of management is the following. 1. I am an active listener I will let people complete their words as a sign of respect to them. 2. I will listen to their thoughts about me or the other things. 3. I will be the last one to speak as this will give me time to digest the thoughts they are sharing and share my constructive thoughts to respond to their ideas or thoughts they are saying. Note: I call it a challenge so that my mind starts to build a solutions of what we debated to get a better way of responding to the crowd in front of me.

La escucha activa es esencial en la comunicación. Pero tenemos no sólo debemos tener una escucha activa, sino una escucha profunda. La escucha profunda no está sólo en lo que la otra persona dice, sino que también se "escucha" sus comportamientos, sentimientos, ideas o pensamientos que expresa. En definitiva, se trata de enfocar la escucha en el otro, no en mí. Así, podremos darnos cuenta, en la mayoría de las conversaciones, que el otro se entenderá más a sí mismo y encontrará las soluciones relacionadas al tema o problema en cuestión. La escucha siempre es guardar silencio, mirar a los ojos, dar tiempo, ser paciente y repetir lo que la otra persona dice para asegurar haberle entendido.

You have two choices when it comes to listening to feedback. 1. Listen to respond. This path is what most people do. They get defensive and start thinking of reactions. They tune out. They look for blame. They craft their response without every hearing the full message. It's no surprise that this doesn't lead to much improvement. 2. Listen to improve. This path is less well-traveled. It takes self-awareness. Patience. Vulnerability. It lets the other person finish. It asks clarifying questions. It assumes the best in the speaker. It pauses before responding OR just says, "thank you." Learn to listen to improve and feedback moves from an attack to a valued tool.

For beauty therapists and leaders alike, learning to receive feedback effectively is key to our growth. It’s natural to feel defensive when confronted with different viewpoints or criticisms, but recognising and managing these emotions allows us to shift from defensiveness to active listening. By reflecting on what was communicated and confirming our understanding, we ensure accurate feedback and focus on areas for improvement. Embracing feedback as a growth opportunity not only enhances our skills but also strengthens our leadership and client relationships.

It's natural to resist feedback; no one likes falling short of expectations. But no one is perfect either. The best creative innovators ask questions to gain clarity. When asking questions, these tips will help: 1. Restate. So what I hear you saying is ________, did I get that right? 2. Reform. So if I were to do more __________, do you think that would improve the outcome? 3. Revisit. So I hear you saying ________, what suggestions do you have to help me improve? If something is unclear, this is the time to get clarity. Otherwise, you'll both walk away with different expectations and the feedback will fail.

perguntar é o caminho para encontrar solu??es, até mesmo no processo de feedback. Tem que ter maturidade emocional e profissional para saber o que faz sentido naquela conversa, pois deve ser um espa?o de escuta ativa, segura e respeitosa.

Asking questions is an art that breathes life into conversations. It’s not just about seeking answers but about diving into the depths of another’s mind. Imagine each question as a key, unlocking hidden stories and emotions. Open-ended questions invite expansive tales, while clarifying questions act as lanterns, illuminating meaning. Probing questions delve even deeper, uncovering layers of thought. By mastering this art, you transform ordinary dialogue into a rich tapestry of shared understanding and connection.

Aproveite esse momento!! E nesse momento que Você pode conseguir mais informa??es até para classificar como um feedback construtivo e verdade de outros que podem n?o ser a depender de quem obviamente está lhe passando esse feedback, por isso, n?o tenha um pré-conceito, a princípio é real e verdadeiro mas é nesse momento que Você pode ter essa confirma??o!!

En cualquier contexto profesional, la habilidad para formular preguntas adecuadas juega un papel crucial. Más allá de simplemente buscar información, hacer preguntas efectivas requiere una escucha activa y empática. Esto no solo ayuda a aclarar situaciones, sino que también demuestra interés genuino en el interlocutor, fomentando un diálogo fluido y constructivo. Cuando nos enfrentamos a comentarios o críticas, el arte de formular preguntas se convierte en una herramienta poderosa para gestionar respuestas sin caer en la defensiva. En lugar de percibir el feedback como una crítica personal, las preguntas nos permiten entender mejor las perspectivas de los demás y considerarlas como oportunidades para el crecimiento y la mejora.

Olhe para o feedback como uma ferramenta para sua evolu??o profissional e pessoal. Os feedbacks negativos n?o s?o fáceis de receber, mas olhe para eles como dicas para o sucesso em sua jornada, mude a perspectiva do seu olhar, veja como uma crítica construtiva e respire fundo para manter a calma. Anote os pontos principais que achar necessário, e utilize a escrita como mais uma ferramenta para ajudar a se acalmar.

There are three ways you can stay calm: ? POSTURE: Our posture is related to our state of mind. Whenever you are receiving a feedback, either positive or negative, if you can keep a strong posture it will help you take the feedback in a +ve way. A research done by Dr. Richard Petty shows our response to a particular event change with change in posture. ?BREATHE: Keeping a relaxed breathing pattern can help you a lot to stay calm. Our breathing pattern is related to our emotional state. Relaxed breathing keeps us grounded. ? MINDSET: Keep a growth mindset. Feedback always gives us essential information either about us or the other person. Information always empowers you.

Se preciso for, é indicado pedir para remarcar aquela conversa, para que nada saia do controle. Tem que ser cauteloso para receber e aplicar o feedback, tem que saber qual o melhor momento para iniciar a conversa, e se precisar é indicado interromper em respeito a pessoa.

Staying calm is like being the eye of a storm, where amidst the chaos, you find a serene center. It's about harnessing inner peace when the world around you swirls in turmoil. Picture a tranquil lake, undisturbed by winds, reflecting the sky with perfect clarity. By breathing deeply and grounding yourself, you become that lake, unshaken and clear-minded, able to navigate challenges with grace and composure.

Feedback é muito importante para avaliarmos se estamos no caminho correto ou se devemos mudar a rota. A quest?o é: Como as pessoa d?o o feedback? O trabalho exige relacionamento e muitas pessoas n?o sabem separa o ambiente profissional do ambiente pessoal, é sabido que existe rela??es tóxicas no ambiente corporativo, e muitas vezes o retorno nem sempre é com o intuito de ajudar e sim prejudicar. obviamente existem os retorno sinceros, o que quero esclarecer é que devemos ter cuidado para interpretar as informa??es que s?o relatadas, ser auto-crítico para avaliar se o retorno realmente faz sentido, se posicionar quando n?o concordar, mantendo o profissionalismo. Lidamos com pessoas e cada uma tem as suas características.

Reflection is crucial to overcome any knee-jerk emotional reactions to the criticism and actually appreciate the value of the advice. If it is a well-meaning and professionally delivered criticism, try and think about ways you can do better next time around. If, on the other hand, the feedback is not that relevant, just remember this - if its not about you, its about them - so avoid carrying the weight of their words with you. Take both the good and bad in stride and discuss it with a trusted friend if that helps to process the feedback better.

avaliar o feedback recebido é muito valido para ver o que faz sentido e definir os próximos passos para o plano de a??o junto com a gest?o, se possível

Absolutely. Quiet reflection indeed allows for a clarified understanding of the feedback or situation. Feedback is a valuable tool for personal and professional growth, but it's not always pleasant and can sometimes elicit strong emotional responses if acted on immediately. Taking time to filter your views and reach a clarified conclusion is the best way to address challenging feedback or opinions. From my personal experience, reflecting privately has helped me approach experiences objectively and without bias. This approach has helped me transform most feedback into opportunities for growth and innovation, and to discern constructive comments

Tirar um tempo para digerir o feedback é muito importante. Normalmente misturamos emo??es que n?o condizem com o real objetivo da situa??o e isso pode atrapalhar.

Reflection is a powerful tool. The key to almost all problems. With it comes greater self awareness. All key elements when handling criticism, self doubt during a work project. Be open to feedback, listen objectively. Sift through the lessons and mistakes with a practical perspective. Work on them. It is only when you take action- self reflection (inherent) and course correction (external) and aligning them with your goals, a new path emerges.

Um feedback, principal um feedback negativo, tem grande chance de ser algo que para Você n?o era percebido, Você agia naturalmente e n?o percebia o que fazia, e aí quando Você recebeu o feedback, ficou pensando sobre isso, identificou de fato algo que entende ser necessário mudar, pode ter certeza que já n?o vai mais cair no seu esquecimento e aí é que vem a mudan?a para melhor! Enjoy!!!

Implementing changes is like tending a garden. You start by envisioning a lush, vibrant space, then carefully plant seeds of new habits and ideas. With patience and dedication, you nurture these changes, adapting and learning as you go. Just as a gardener prunes and adjusts to ensure healthy growth, you make adjustments and overcome challenges, gradually transforming your vision into reality. The process requires effort and resilience, but the flourishing garden at the end makes it all worthwhile.

I personally consider, this is the most difficult part. Not just because it means accepting some mistakes you're committing, but also be neutral about it to try to solve it and do it better. In the other hand, there are times when even being aware of your issues/mistakes, circumstances don't allow you to change your proceeding but to a worse way than the current one (for example when the company is not yours and policies don't allow you to change those facts), then comes the most difficult part: accepting there's nothing you can do about it, and give the best service you can offer in that situation. Objectivity is the most difficult part for people to achieve for their company or job to do their tasks.

Every job we do must meet the needs of a specific client, with their worldview and expectations. We should view feedback as our guiding principle to achieve the desired result.

Those who are giving and receiving feedback should know each other reasonably well; otherwise, the risk of misinterpretation can be even greater. Valuable and useful feedback combines content with the correct format and should not be a surprise to either party, as it is merely a formalization of an ongoing process of management and development.

Recognize the source. When receiving feedback, ask yourself these questions: "Do I trust this person?", "Do I want to be where this person is in life?", "Did I ask for this feedback/Is this unwarranted", "Is this feedback actually attacking my character or can I find an opportunity to grow", "Does this feedback align with my goals and who I am", "Is there any part of the feedback that is valid (even if I don't want to hear it), "Does their feedback matter? (i.e. is this from a boss, a trusted friend, or some random person on the internet, etc) Sidenote: If the feedback is some random person online trolling you and it's causing mental health issues, feel free to alt+delete+block;)
