Feedback ignored doesn’t disappear. It comes back later as a grade, a benching or a pink slip.

LEADERSHIP

WHAT THIS MEANS

Information you refuse tends to return in a less friendly form. A person telling you directly is the cheapest version of the message, delivered by someone who still thinks it is worth telling you. When that gets ignored, the same content arrives later through a system that does not explain itself and does not care whether you agree.

Go back to the last correction you brushed off and treat it as a live item. Ask the person what they would want to see different, then change one visible thing so the answer is not theoretical.

A QUESTION TO SIT WITH
