Have you ever gotten feedback that completely shifted your career? That’s exactly what happened to Joanne Rodgers, SVP and Head of HR at New York Life, after a senior leader shared some “jarring” feedback following one of her speeches. “ I was like, ‘Oh my God’ and he was just like, ‘I just think you need to be aware because no one else is gonna tell you this and I'm gonna tell you this.’” “He showed me how I used, ‘um’ in a sentence or to start a paragraph or to make an important point. I am now very aware of that and I am so thankful that he gave me that feedback.” What’s the most impactful feedback you’ve ever received? Drop it in the comments.
