Feedback: How Committed Are You to Your Growth?

The opinion of other people can be one of the most helpful tools as you seek to grow in your leadership. This is especially true when it pertains to speaking in front of people. The reality is, in most scenarios, you will not be able to see yourself as you are speaking. This makes it difficult to understand whether or not you are speaking in an effective manner or not. This is why, as a leader, seeking feedback is one of the most vital components that you can utilize in order to progress with your speaking.

Although feedback is one of the most important tools that you can use as a speaker in any setting, so many leaders and pastors do not know how to seek meaningful feedback. When you do not understand how to seek feedback, you will start to dwell on the things that you think you could do better. This is not healthy because it will result in frustration at the fact that there are certain things that you cannot determine about your speaking performance as well as the people around you. You have to position yourself so that you can be perceptive to meaningful feedback by understanding where and how to find it.

Another thing to keep in mind is that feedback is not always going to be positive or negative. Sometimes you will have people who are encouraging all of the time, and other times you will have people that will make it a point to show you your flaws. In both cases, it is imperative that you know how to react to the feedback that you are given.

In this video, you will learn the importance of receiving feedback, why feedback is key to your growth, and what to do when you are receiving feedback.
