How good are you at receiving feedback?
Feedback is a crucial part of growth, but it can be really hard to hear! Our defenses go up and we feel like we’re being criticized and attacked. So what can we do to be more open to feedback and able to take it on board without going into a failure spiral?
Julie Campbell is here to show us the way. In this episode, Julie talks about why feedback matters, how to change your reaction to feedback, and how to give and receive good feedback. You are a lifelong learner and feedback will help you grow throughout your life. Tune in to change the way you receive feedback forever!
Julie is a mother of two boys, a wife to a college athletics coach, and the president and CEO of Severn Leadership Group, a company committed to making the world better through virtuous leadership. She served 20 years in the US Navy in various leadership positions in space systems, electronic warfare, and communications, followed by 10 years leading teams in the defense and information technology industries. With a passion and curiosity for people and their purposes, Julie is a lifelong mentor and collaborator with a mission to help others level up their leadership as they change the world.
In Today’s Episode We Discuss:

Feedback doesn’t have to be scary! It takes practice to get used to hearing feedback without panicking or rejecting what someone has to say, but the practice is so worth it. I loved having this discussion with Julie and I can’t wait for you to hear it! I know you’ll love it too.
