"Any feedback for me?"
It's a kind question
that almost never works.
It's too big. Too vague.
So people default to "you're doing great,"
and you walk away with nothing.
Make it easy to tell you the truth.
Ask for one thing.
"What's one thing I could've done better
in that meeting?"
"If you changed one part of this, what?"
A small, specific question
gives them a safe place to be honest.
One clear answer
is worth ten polite "you're fine"s.
The people who improve fastest
aren't the ones who ask for feedback most.
They're the ones who make it
small enough to actually give.
