11 ways to get better feedback from your manager
In this week’s newsletter, we’ll cover how to get more and better feedback from your manager:
- Make it insanely easy for your manager to give you feedback.
- “Feedback” might feel loaded. Ask what to do differently and what worked well.
- Give them permission to rip your work apart.
- Don’t romanticize feedback. You might already be getting it.
- Give your manager something concrete to react to.
- Don’t expect your manager to create a structured lesson plan for you.
- React positively when you get feedback.
- Frame why giving you feedback is ROI positive. It’s not always obvious or true.
- Specify what part you need help with.
- Be explicit about the type of feedback you’re looking for.
- Be the kind of operator managers want to invest in.
