Do you still think vulnerability is a weakness? ❤️‍🔥

Brené Brown taught us in "Dare to Lead" that you cannot get to courage without rumbling with vulnerability. Asking for help, admitting you don't have the answer, or listening to tough feedback requires immense bravery.

Feedback or Feedforward? Focus on what comes next

Sometimes the most useful conversation starts with a different question: What could we do differently next time?

This is the idea behind feedforward: shifting the conversation from analysing the past to exploring future actions.

🌱 learn from mistakes
💬 ask for feedback
🚀 see challenges as opportunities

🚀How strong is your feedback culture?

Organisations say it is important.
But in practice remains unclear. That’s why we developed a self-assessment tool that helps
to assess:

- which ones are missing
- where to start improving

At #OpenFeedbackCulture, we develop practical methodologies to bring these skills to organisations
