[0:00] Speaker 1: Hey, there, awesome people. Leo Weston here your guide to
[0:04] Speaker 1: unlocking that inner confidence and owning any stage you step on.
[0:10] Speaker 1: Today's episode is all about a superpower. We can all
[0:13] Speaker 1: cultivate the art of feedback, the art of feedback, and
[0:21] Speaker 1: trust me, it's not just for those Silicon Valley tech
[0:24] Speaker 1: geniuses or award winning actors. This stuff is gold for everyone,
[0:30] Speaker 1: whether you're presenting at work, sharing your ideas with friends,
[0:33] Speaker 1: or even just navigating tricky conversations. Ever feel like you
[0:38] Speaker 1: hit a wall when trying to improve. Maybe you think
[0:41] Speaker 1: you know what works best, but somehow things aren't clicking.
[0:45] Speaker 1: You know that feeling well feedback is the secret sauce
[0:48] Speaker 1: that can break through those plateaus and propel you to
[0:52] Speaker 1: the next level. Think of it as a compass, guiding
[0:56] Speaker 1: you towards success, helping you refine your skills and become
[1:00] Speaker 1: even more amazing than you already are. Now I'm not
[1:05] Speaker 1: talking about those dreaded, overly critical reviews that leave you
[1:09] Speaker 1: feeling deflated. We're diving into the kind of feedback that's constructive, insightful,
[1:15] Speaker 1: and actually helps you grow. Here are five golden nuggets
[1:21] Speaker 1: to master the art of feedback. First up, be a
[1:25] Speaker 1: feedback magnet. Don't wait for someone to hand it to
[1:29] Speaker 1: you on a silver platter. Actively seek out feedback from
[1:34] Speaker 1: people you trust. Mentors, colleagues, friends, even family members who
[1:39] Speaker 1: know your work well. You got to put yourself out
[1:42] Speaker 1: there and ask those crucial questions, like what do you
[1:45] Speaker 1: think could be improved? Or is there anything I could
[1:50] Speaker 1: have done differently? Next, listen with an open heart. This
[1:55] Speaker 1: one's super important. When someone's given you feedbacks, is this
[2:00] Speaker 1: the urge to get defensive? Instead, really focus on what
[2:04] Speaker 1: they're saying, Take notes, ask clarifying questions, and try to
[2:09] Speaker 1: see things from their perspective. Remember, feedback is a gift,
[2:14] Speaker 1: even if it stings a little at first. Don't just
[2:17] Speaker 1: hear internalize. Think of feedback as a treasure map. You've
[2:23] Speaker 1: got all these clues about what works, what doesn't, and
[2:27] Speaker 1: how you can improve. Take those insights, chew on them,
[2:31] Speaker 1: and figure out how to apply them in your next presentation,
[2:35] Speaker 1: your next conversation, or even just your next interaction with someone.
[2:40] Speaker 1: Seek feedback regularly. Don't wait for a grand event to
[2:43] Speaker 1: solicit feedback. Make it a habit. After every presentation, every meeting,
[2:49] Speaker 1: even casual conversations. Ask yourself what could have gone better,
[2:55] Speaker 1: not might, and then seek out specific feedback from others.
[3:01] Speaker 1: This consistent approach is like hitting the gem for your
[3:04] Speaker 1: communication skills. You've got to keep at it to see
[3:08] Speaker 1: real results and finally give feedback generously. Remember what goes
[3:14] Speaker 1: around comes around. When you offer healthful and constructive feedback
[3:19] Speaker 1: to others, not only are you helping them grow, but
[3:23] Speaker 1: you're also sharpening your own skills as a communicator. It's
[3:27] Speaker 1: a win win situation. Now, let me paint a picture
[3:30] Speaker 1: for you. Imagine this. Sarah, a brilliant young marketing manager,
[3:36] Speaker 1: is preparing for her first big company presentation. She's nervous,
[3:41] Speaker 1: she's overthinking every detail, and she's starting to doubt herself.
[3:47] Speaker 1: But instead of letting those anxieties take over, Sarah reaches
[3:51] Speaker 1: out to a senior colleague known for her public speaking expertise.
[3:56] Speaker 1: Would you mind giving me some feedback on my presentation,
[3:59] Speaker 1: Sarah asks, I want to make sure it's as impactful
[4:02] Speaker 1: as possible. The colleague agrees, offers insightful suggestions on her
[4:08] Speaker 1: content and delivery, and even gives her tips on managing
[4:12] Speaker 1: pre presentation. Jitters feeling more confident after receiving that valuable feedback.
[4:19] Speaker 1: Sarah nails her presentation. She's engaging, articulate, and commands the
[4:25] Speaker 1: room with ease. Her colleagues are impressed, she gets a
[4:30] Speaker 1: standing ovation, and her boss praises her for delivering a
[4:33] Speaker 1: stellar performance. Sarah's story illustrates how powerful feedback can be
[4:40] Speaker 1: by embracing it, she transformed from a nervous presenter into
[4:44] Speaker 1: a confident public speaker. Remember, folks, feedback isn't just about
[4:49] Speaker 1: pointing out flaws. It's about highlighting your strengths, identifying areas
[4:54] Speaker 1: for growth, and ultimately helping you become the best version
[4:57] Speaker 1: of yourself. So go out there, be open to feedback
[5:02] Speaker 1: and watch your confidence sore. And don't forget to share
[5:07] Speaker 1: this episode with a friend who could benefit from mastering
[5:10] Speaker 1: the art of feedback. Let's keep spreading the competence. Thanks
[5:15] Speaker 1: for tuning in, and I'll catch you on the next
[5:18] Speaker 1: episode of Confidence on Command. This podcast is created with
[5:27] Speaker 1: the help of advanced AI to deliver thoughtful affirmations and
[5:32] Speaker 1: positive messages just for you.
