We spend most days in the weeds. We're running to meetings and getting things done. With all the tasks to accomplish, we need to be dialed in, soaring at a low altitude to manage the… https://t.co/8ilLLv49BE

As you grow in your career, so hopefully does your relationship with feedback. Part of that growth is learning how not to get hooked by praise or criticism. It means hearing praise, but… https://t.co/nIl88x9nQY
