About the webinar

Create a positive and open culture of direct feedback

David Dodson shares a formula to create a positive and open culture of direct feedback.

Giving effective and direct feedback to each other is essential for success, both individually and organizationally. But doing so goes against our cognitive wiring. We want to be liked, we avoid conflict, and we don’t want to hurt someone’s feelings. The result is that we confuse indirectness for kindness.

In this webinar, best-selling author and Stanford Business School lecturer David Dodson will discuss a six-part formula for how to rewire our brains to create a positive and open culture of direct feedback.

David will provide practical and actionable steps you can take the next day to break down the barriers to reaching your potential and get you on the path to success.
