Broccoli. Rarely our favourite vegetable but it is good for us. Just like feedback. Feedback helps us reach goals, fulfil potential, improve collaborations and forms an essential part of business communication. However, we do not like to give or receive it. Effective feedback is directed at behaviour, not at a person. It is honestly and respectfully expressed and is welcomed by the receiver.
