ep. 1018: The Nvidia Leadership Principle That Changed How I Give FeedbackWhat if the biggest leadership mistake isn't giving too much feedback—but giving it to too few people?In this episode, I share one of the most powerful leadership lessons I took away from The Nvidia Way. As Nvidia grew into one of the world's most valuable companies, Jensen Huang realized that one-on-one coaching no longer scaled. His solution challenged the way I think about leadership, accountability, and building a learning organization.We explore why one person's mistake can become everyone else's lesson, how public feedback—when delivered with the right intent—can improve decision-making across an entire team, and why great leaders focus on scaling learning, not just managing people.Whether you lead a business, manage a sales team, coach others, or simply want to become a better communicator, this episode will challenge you to rethink how feedback is given and how organizations learn.If you're tired of repeating the same lessons over and over, this conversation may change the way you lead.In this episode, you'll learn:Why great leaders make learning scalable.The difference between public learning and public embarrassment.How feedback can improve decision-making before mistakes happen.Why accountability and transparency create stronger teams.A practical leadership question that can transform the way you coach others.If this episode challenges your thinking, I'd love to hear from you.

How do you hold employees to high standards of performance while being a compassionate leader? The answer is walking the accountability tightrope. In this episode of Boss Better Now, Joe Mull kicks off a special four-part series adapted directly from his live leadership workshops on accountability in leadership. Listen in as he explains why equating caring with leniency leaves teams frustrated and exactly what you need to do to fix it. Many managers fall into a protector mindset where they prioritize comfort and underestimate employee capability. Joe shares real stories from his own career about being overly delicate and nervous about giving feedback to employees because he wanted to be liked. He details exactly how to shift away from rescuing struggling employees and instead provide the productive struggle necessary for growth. What to Expect in This Episode: Why Feedback is the Most Important Leadership Skill: Why vague, subjective language triggers defensiveness and how to avoid it. What is the Accountability Tightrope?: Joe introduces the summer series focused on balancing high standards with supportive relationships. Why "Soft" Leadership Causes Employee Frustration: The real costs of avoiding uncomfortable conversations and letting employees coast. Recognizing the Protector Mindset at Work: How avoiding meaningful work and lowering expectations prevents teams from reaching peak performance, and what the mentor mindset looks like instead. Overcoming the Need to be Liked as a Manager: Joe's personal story about walking on eggshells and how it harms team development. How to Raise Standards When You Already Offer High Support: Steps to articulate clear expectations rooted in culture and values. The Viral Teacher Hack for Correcting Behavior: Stop targeting the person and start naming the standard. Using the Feedback Stack Framework: How to give feedback to employees using objective, behavior-based language that lands without triggering defensiveness.

You know something is wrong with your team. Maybe it's the missed deadlines that have become the norm. The low energy in meetings. The friction nobody's naming. The high performer who's gone quiet. Or just a general flatness — a team that's functional but nowhere near what you know it could be. In this episode of Leading Women in Tech, Toni Collis gives you the honest, practical framework for turning a struggling team around — including the part most leadership advice skips: the leader's own role in the system. What's covered: ➡️The four types of team struggle — and why getting the diagnosis right before you act is the most important thing you can do. The wrong solution applied with confidence makes things worse. ➡️The over-functioning trap — why managing around a problem signals to your whole team that the problem is acceptable, and what it's costing your best people right now ➡️Why your team is not where you are — the emotional and informational gap between you and your team, and why moving at your pace without accounting for theirs leaves people behind ➡️The three conversations you've been avoiding — performance, expectations, and recognition — and why the difference between a team that stays stuck and one that turns around is almost always the conversations the leader wasn't having ➡️How to retain your high performers when the team is struggling — because they're always the first to leave, and they always have options ➡️The honest question about your own leadership — and why understanding your role in the system is what makes the rest of this possible ➡️Where to start this week — three specific actions, not twenty Whether you've inherited a struggling team, watched one develop on your watch, or just know things need to change and aren't sure where to start — this episode gives you the framework.

Many leaders care deeply about their teams — which is exactly why giving feedback can feel difficult. You want to be supportive. You want to protect the relationship. You want to handle the conversation well. But when feedback conversations are delayed or softened too much, expectations become unclear and problems often continue longer than they should. Healthy feedback is not about criticism. It is about helping people grow, improve, and succeed. In this episode, we explore how leaders can give feedback with both clarity and compassion, so conversations strengthen trust rather than damage relationships.   In This Episode We discuss: • Why many thoughtful leaders hesitate to give feedback • The hidden cost of delaying difficult conversations • How to focus feedback on behaviour rather than personal criticism • Why clarity is one of the greatest gifts a leader can give • How expressing confidence in someone's growth changes the tone of feedback You'll learn practical ways to approach feedback conversations with wisdom, professionalism, and Christ-centred leadership.   Prepare for the Difficult Conversation You've Been Avoiding If there's a conversation you know you need to have — but you've been unsure how to approach it — the Confident Conversation Sprint will help you prepare for it step by step.

Gallup found managers account for 70% of the variance in employee engagement. Most managers respond to that by deciding they need to give more feedback. That's where they go wrong.Every popular framework — SBI, GROW, the feedback sandwich — tells you how to deliver. None of them ask whether you should be delivering at all.In this episode: BOM's 5R diagnostic. Five questions to run before booking any feedback conversation.1. Reprioritise — Is this person overwhelmed?2. Reset Expectations — Were the standards ever clearly communicated?3. Recognise — Have I only ever given them corrective feedback?4. Resource — Is something blocking them that I haven't addressed?5. Role Model — Am I demonstrating the standard I'm about to ask for?Plus a real story from the shop floor: a busy-looking employee, a low-output shift, and one question that changed everything — for both of us.Try this tomorrow morning before your next feedback talk.

Does anyone teach composers how to do the compliment sandwich anymore? Megan walks through a feedback framework that's deceptively simple but transforms rehearsal dynamics: compliment + note + compliment, applied with clarity about your intended sound outcome rather than criticism of what's being done "wrong." This episode lands hardest for composers giving feedback on their own work, but it's a game-changer for anyone collaborating with musicians—teachers, directors, partners. The key: shift from "you're doing this physically wrong" to "here's the sound I want us to achieve together." That one move builds trust, opens dialogue, and gets you workable solutions instead of locked-up performers. Do you like these micro action episodes?

 Let's talk about one of the fastest ways to lose money, lose momentum, and slowly start resenting your business.   It's not ads. It's not the algorithm. It's not even your offer.   It's a setter who is underperforming and you keep trying to "coach it out of them" while your calendar stays empty.   And here's what makes this tricky.   When a setter is underperforming, most business owners do one of two things.   They either micromanage every conversation like an FBI agent. Or they bury their head in the sand and hope next week magically improves.   Neither one works.   So today I'm going to show you exactly how to diagnose the true constraint when a setter isn't performing, and then how to lead the situation with a feedback rule that keeps your culture clean and your standards crystal clear.   Time Stamps:   (0:42) Underperforming Team Members (3:34) IFCA Client Karrisa Example (5:58) Start At The Result (13:20) Don't Give Feedback 3 Times ----------

Graham Allcott: KIND Graham Allcott is an author, speaker, entrepreneur, and the founder of Think Productive, a leading provider of training and consultancy. He is the author of multiple books, including the bestseller How to Be a Productivity Ninja and his latest book, KIND: The Quiet Power of Kindness at Work (Amazon, Bookshop)*. “Nice” means telling people what they want to hear. “Kind” means telling them what they need to hear. The best leaders are kind. In this conversation, Graham and I explore how we can do a better job of following through. Key Points “Nice” means telling people what they want to hear, whereas “kind” means telling them what they need to hear. Kindness is both concern for others and concern for self. Just like with salted caramel, it's best with the right balance. Leaders often do better articulating vision and values than they do with getting clear on expectations of value each person should provide. Being clear is an act of kindness in itself because it drives psychological safety. Use a personal mantra as a concise and powerful way to consistently remind people about what's most important. Invite others to “give the last 20%” in feedback to uncover areas where clarity would help.

In this episode, I'm flipping the feedback conversation and focusing on the receiver instead of the giver. As leaders, we're constantly told how to deliver clear, meaningful feedback—but we're also on the receiving end from bosses, boards, peers, and our own teams. How we receive feedback is just as critical as how we give it. I'll walk you through: Why feedback really matters for growth, confidence, and performance The five cornerstones of effective feedback (curiosity, mindset, cognitive bias, active listening, and communication preferences) Common barriers that get in the way of receiving feedback well How our emotions and communication styles (including Insights Discovery color energies) influence our reactions A simple mindset shift to move from self-protection to self-expansion using curiosity You'll leave this episode with practical ways to stay grounded, open, and intentional when feedback finds you—whether it's in a formal review, a casual comment, or even an eye roll from your teenager. The magic isn't in getting feedback; it's in what you choose to do with it. Enjoy!

Monica explains why feedback is so hard both for the giver and the receiver and why avoiding it usually makes things worse, not better. She shares practical tools for leaders who want to give feedback that is fair, constructive, and effective, without damaging trust or relationships. From using phrases like “I'm wondering…” and “Help me understand…” to balancing compliments with areas for growth, Monica offers approaches that keep conversations honest, humane, and actionable. They also explore how to avoid the common traps: waiting too long, overloading with criticism, making it about yourself, or panicking in silence. Instead, Monica lays out how to structure feedback meetings, how often to hold them, and how to give people a genuine voice in the process. Listen to this episode to learn how feedback, done thoughtfully, can build trust, spark growth, and strengthen relationships, and in the process strengthen entire organisations.

In this episode, learn the way to NOT give feedback. This is a common approach, but likely the worst way to give feedback if you want to get the outcome you desire from giving feedback.

Most managers think they're giving feedback constantly, while employees say they don't get enough – if any. In this episode, researcher and positive interventionist Lisa Sansom reveals why most feedback fails and shares practical strategies for making it effective. You'll discover why trust matters more than technique, how to avoid the biggest feedback mistakes (like addressing individual issues in team meetings), and why "good job" isn't enough for high performers. Lisa also explains when to give positive versus constructive feedback and how new leaders can start building a feedback culture. Whether you're avoiding these conversations or wondering why your team doesn't seem to hear you, this episode transforms feedback from a dreaded task into a powerful growth tool.

The Right Way to Give Feedback: Balancing Empathy and ImpactIn this episode of the Leadership Launchpad Project podcast, co-hosts Susan Hobson and Tracey Allen dive deep into one of the toughest challenges leaders face: giving feedback that drives growth without damaging trust.If you've ever struggled to deliver constructive criticism without feeling “too tough” — or worried about how your team will react — this conversation is for you.Susan coaches Tracy live on-air through the real-life tension between empathy and impact. Together, they explore: ✅ Why grounded empathy is the key to effective leadership feedback✅ How to hold your team accountable without losing connection ✅ The mindset shifts that turn difficult conversations into growth opportunities ✅ Why feedback is an ultimate act of care in conscious leadershipWhether you lead a team of two or a company of thousands, you'll learn how to give feedback that inspires performance, builds trust, and stays true to your values.

Episode 204: Hosts Richard Kyte and Scott Rada explore why so much of what we call “constructive criticism” fails — and what it takes to make it truly effective. Many of us dread the annual performance review, and with good reason. As Kyte points out, a well-run workplace shouldn’t save observations and advice for one stressful meeting a year. “Good coaching is constant,” he says. “If you have a good manager, you already know what’s working and what needs improvement, because it’s an ongoing conversation.” Feedback, he explains, should be specific, timely and delivered in the spirit of helping someone grow — not just checking a box. The hosts also draw lessons from outside the office. Rada shares a story of baseball great Chipper Jones, who was challenged early in his career by coach Don Baylor to correct flaws in his swing. Jones said he appreciated the directness because it showed someone cared enough to help him improve. That’s the mark of effective feedback — being clear, constructive and genuinely invested in the other person’s success. Of course, not all feedback lands well. Many people simply seek confirmation rather than honest critique. As journalist Jason Feifer has written, it’s crucial to tailor your approach based on where someone is in their process — whether they need a collaborator, a reactor or a refiner. The episode also tackles some tricky ethical questions: Does feedback always need to be gentle? Should it sometimes hurt? How do you know when to stop offering advice, especially if someone repeatedly ignores it? The hosts provide guidance on how to adjust your approach according to the person, the context and your intended outcome.

“Feedback is never done in isolation; there's a whole range of things going on around someone in your team, and so it's really helpful to prepare properly before you give feedback.” Chief, today we are kicking off Part 1 of our How to Give Feedback Series. In today's episode, we are diving into the essentials of preparing to give feedback like an elite sporting coach, as well as some core principles of this process. Feedback is the breakfast of champions of high-performance teams and is vital for personal and team growth. And you, as the leader, are your team's coach, helping to guide them to kicking business goals, ultimately which reflects on you, Chief, and your track record.

“Being difficult to give feedback to means people will stop giving it completely and you'll have no idea about your true performance and reputation.” In today's minisode, we finish our series on How to Give Feedback and we're going to bring this home by giving you some strategies to implement a culture of feedback within your department or organisation. Remember, as a leader, their performance is also your performance and you've both got to own it, otherwise you risk negatively affecting your track record. Chief, if you haven't listened to Part 1 (preparing like a coach) or Part 2 (tools and strategies), please go back and listen to them first as it will give you some vital context to the final episode.

Her clients include Google, Microsoft, Novartis, Wikipedia, and Oxfam International. She is the author of four leadership books, including now in it's second edition, Changing on the Job: How Leaders Become Courageous, Wise, and Steady in an Anxious World*. We often think about feedback as something we give to someone else. What if, in addition to that, feedback is an opportunity for both parties to learn and grow. In this conversation, Jennifer and I explore how this can open a door to some of the best leadership work we do. Key Points If we view feedback as only giving our truth to someone else, we've missed a huge opportunity for growth. Start by separating what happened from the interpretation of what happened. Asking Get curious about your own response: what made you react so strongly? Talk it out. You have to welcome someone else into your thinking if you're going to really learn. Invite in how the other person sees the situation. Consider saying, “I'm really interested in what this looked like from your perspective.” The process of unwinding what you hear is the good work of leadership and some the best work you can do.

Jonathan Raymond: Good Authority Jonathan Raymond is the founder of Refound and Ren AI. He helps leaders make work a better place, one conversation at a time. He's the author of the book Good Authority: How to Become the Leader Your Team Is Waiting for and hosts the podcast of the same name. He's also the creator of The Accountability Dial, used by many in our community to support healthy accountability in their organizations. With all the tools and technology we have access to, it's so easy to fall in the trap of mostly being transactional. Yet, leadership is at its best when it elevates above the transaction and builds the broader relationship. In this conversation, Jonathan and I discuss how to make that shift. Key Points While the pandemic helped us shift in some helpful ways, it also created an environment where leaders don't always feel safe with healthy accountability. The most healthy conversations have consequences if change does not happen. The primary obstacle to holding people accountable is fear. Leaders will find times when then not able to defend themselves. Having access to too much detail is a recipe for micromanagement. The best feedback moves away from transitional and towards relational. Find places of retreat to spend unstructured, non-transactional time. Don't let the perfect get in the way of the good. Hold people accountable for the qualities of leadership, not the outcomes.
