The Feedback Edge: How to Get It, Give It, and Grow From It

Feedback is one of the most powerful tools for career growth and one of the most misunderstood. In this interactive session, leadership coach Melissa Jeanes will help you rethink your relationship with feedback, both giving and receiving. You'll walk away with practical frameworks to ask for feedback that actually helps you grow, deliver honest and effective feedback to the people around you, and turn tough conversations into career momentum.
