So recently I read two articles about feedback, so I thought I would give my feedback !
The first article is called "A fixed Mindset could be holding you back ", It's very interesting article and I couldn't help think about how video game tie into this. As when you died in video game or fail a mission, you're usually encourage by game or by yourself to try again. This makes you think about different way to approach the problem, learn from your mistakes and improve your skill with said games. I think video could encourage a growth mindset, as it's about learning from your mistakes and becoming a better person.
Really interesting article never really thought about fixed or growth mindsets before. I hadn't even heard the term before either !
The next article is called "Why is it so hard to hear Negative Feedback ? " and this was less so interesting. The article was about how to give and receive Negative feedback, while it's good advice. It's also a short article with no in depth explanation. Also base on my experience, people tend who to give you negative feedback, also avoid you, for example: I have one leader who always criticize me, some valid, others not so much and she rarely talks to me, won't even say hi to me. So if she avoiding me and is constantly criticizing me, why would I be more accepting of it ?
As the article admits that it's boils down to "trusting that everyone is participating in good faith." and sadly not everyone does. Some people don't act in good faith, but that doesn't mean their criticism isn't valid and the opposite is true as well. I feel the article is taking a complex issue and only taking one
Fun Fact: as I write this I'm listening to a song call "Critical Darling", Ironic.
