You Need Tough Feedback—Here’s How to Get It | Christine vs. WorkUploaded 18-05-2118 May 2021---𝙎𝙪𝙗𝙨𝙘𝙧𝙞𝙗𝙚 𝙩𝙤 𝘼𝙨𝙘𝙚𝙣𝙙 𝙩𝙤𝙙𝙖𝙮! ✨ https://www.youtube.com/c/HBRAscend ✨I want to get constructive feedback and grow from it, without getting upset. Is that too much to ask. Feedback is a crucial element of your professional growth, so it pays to ask for it. Whether from a trusted colleague or manager, high-quality feedback highlights where you shine and where you can improve. However, sometimes the feedback we get isn’t tough enough. Blanket compliments like “Great job” or “You’re doing fine” aren’t particularly helpful. On the other hand, getting unexpected negative feedback can be painful.In this episode, Innovation Editor Christine Liu sets out to learn how to ask for and get quality feedback, how to react to feedback (good or bad), and how to grow from it. She turns to Octavia Goredema, career coach and founder of Twenty Ten Agency, for answers on how to manage professional feedback.00:00 My feedback questions02:00 How do I ask for feedback?02:48 What's the right way to react to good feedback?03:43 I got negative feedback.

A Plan Is Not a Strategy

A Plan Is Not a StrategyUploaded 29-06-2229 Jun 2022---A comprehensive plan—with goals, initiatives, and budgets–is comforting. But starting with a plan is a terrible way to make strategy. Roger Martin, former dean of the Rotman School of Management at the University of Toronto and one of the world’s leading thinkers on strategy, says developing strategy means going outside an organization’s comfort zone and escaping the common traps of strategic planning.00:00 Most strategic planning has nothing to do with strategy.01:00 So what is a strategy?02:08 Why do leaders so often focus on planning?04:05 Let's see a real-world example of strategy beating planning.06:33 How do I avoid the "planning trap"?

In the past few years, business leaders have increasingly been urged to shift from a shareholder-centered approach to governance to a multi-stakeholder approach. This is often referred to as a shift to “stakeholder capitalism.” But there’s a catch: Leaders interpret stakeholder capitalism in various ways, which can result in confusion and conflict. Here are four different visions of what stakeholder capitalism can mean.

A Lesson from Google: Can AI Bias be Monitored Internally? | Cold Call Lees meer
14 Jun 2023
---
Dr. Timnit Gebru was the co-lead of Google’s Ethical AI research team – until she raised concerns about bias in the company’s large language models and was forced out in 2020.
Her departure sent shockwaves through the AI and tech community and raised fundamental questions about how companies safeguard against bias in their own AI. Should in-house ethics research continue to be led by researchers who best understand the technology, or must ethics and bias be monitored by more objective researchers who aren’t employed by companies?
Harvard Business School professor Tsedal Neeley discusses how companies can approach the problem of AI bias in her case, “Timnit Gebru: ‘SILENCED No More’ on AI Bias and The Harms of Large Language Models.” (https://store.hbr.org/product/timnit-gebru-silenced-no-more-on-ai-bias-and-the-harms-of-large-language-models/422085?sku=422085-PDF-ENG)

The Explainer: Balancing Execution and Adaptation Lees meer
18 Jun 2019
---
Most organizations only focus on execution or adaptation. But both are important for success.
Research shows that most leaders and organizations tend to focus on just one type of performance. But there are two types that are important for success. The first type is known as tactical performance. Tactical performance is how effectively your organization sticks to its strategy. It is the driver of focus and consistency. It allows organizations to increase strength by directing limited resources to the fewest targets.
The second type, known as adaptive performance, is how effectively your organization diverges from its strategy. Adaptive performance manifests as creativity, problem solving, grit, innovation, and citizenship. It allows organizations to create value in a world filled with, as the U.S. military says, volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity, where technology and strategy changes rapidly.
Organizations need to focus on both tactical and adaptive performance to succeed.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
At Harvard Business Review, we believe in management. If the world’s organizations and institutions were run more effectively, if our leaders made better decisions, if people worked more productively, we believe that all of us — employees, bosses, customers, our families, and the people our businesses affect — would be better off. So we try to arm our readers with ideas that help them become smarter, more creative, and more courageous in their work. We enlist the foremost experts in a wide range of topics, including career planning, strategy, leadership, work-life balance, negotiations, innovation, and managing teams. Harvard Business Review empowers professionals around the world to lead themselves and their organizations more effectively and to make a positive impact.

How to Regain Your Composure in Stressful Situations #work #job #workfromhomeUploaded 12-04-2412 Apr 2024---In stressful situations, it can be hard to self-regulate our feelings. Self-regulation is the ability to understand and manage our physical, emotional, and mental reactions so that we can perform and behave more skillfully under stress. Regaining our composure begins with awareness. When you feel ourselves slipping into a spiral of stress, shut the laptop and do something enjoyable, like taking a walk outside. This gives us a chance to be present, breathe, and reenter work with a calmer mindset.—Adapted from, “How to Regain Your Composure in Stressful Situations”, by Anke Thiele.Follow us:https://hbr.org/https://www.linkedin.com/company/harvard-business-review/https://www.facebook.com/HBR/https://twitter.com/HarvardBizhttps://www.instagram.com/harvard_business_reviewSign up for Newsletters: https://hbr.org/email-newsletters#HarvardBusinessReview #YourCareer #Career #Job #Work #Harvard #HarvardBusinessSchool Copyright © 2024 Harvard Business School Publishing.

Leisure's Not a Luxury. It's a Requirement for Top Leaders
21 oktober 2026 · 6 min
For strivers, leisure may be the hardest skill to master--but it's also one of the most important. Arthur C. Brooks, author of "The Happiness Files" and "The Meaning of Your Life", argues that leisure is not laziness or escape, but a serious practice that can make us more creative, grounded, and effective. He challenges leaders to rethink “work-life balance” and instead pursue a more integrated, meaningful life. For ambitious professionals, the lesson is clear: learning how to use leisure well may be one of the most important skills for long-term happiness and success.Uploaded 29-04-26More from Arthur C.

Brooks joins host Adi Ignatius for a conversation at Harvard Business School’s Klarman Hall. They talk about why happiness is a direction, not a destination; why career success doesn’t automatically mean happiness; and how C-suite leaders can create better work environments that create happier employees – and more successful organizations.

If Your Team Never Fails, It Isn’t Learning
21 oktober 2026 · 7 min
For leaders, building a high-performing team may require embracing something counterintuitive: failure. Ron Friedman, psychologist and author of "Superteams: The Science and Secrets of High-Performing Teams," argues that the best teams learn faster by treating experimentation, feedback, and innovation as core team habits. Uploaded 10-06-26Drawing on surveys of thousands of workers, he challenges leaders to let go of perfectionism and adopt a "progress mentality," where intelligent risk-taking is rewarded. For ambitious teams, the lesson is clear: if nothing ever fails, you're not pushing hard enough, and you're probably falling behind.For more, check out Friedman's book: https://www.amazon.com/Superteams-Science-Secrets-High-Performing-Teams/dp/198218633X0:00 The three key strengths of superteams.1:47 Superteams conduct more experiments.2:52 Superteams give and receive more feedback.3:59 Superteams reward innovation (and failure).Books, tools, and more: store.hbr.orgFollow us:https://hbr.org/https://www.linkedin.com/company/harvard-business-review/https://www.facebook.com/HBR/https://twitter.com/HarvardBizhttps://www.instagram.com/harvard_business_reviewSign up for Newsletters: https://hbr.org/email-newsletters#HarvardBusinessReview #YourCareer #Career #Job #Work #Business #Harvard #HarvardBusinessSchool Copyright © 2026 Harvard Business School Publishing.

Here's a quick self-assessment to find out whether your ego is detached from real achievement.
00:00 Here are some questions typically used in research to evaluate non-clinical narcissism.
01:31 What is narcissism?
02:00 Why does it seem like there are so many narcissists today?
02:50 Is this why it seems like everyone wants to be famous?
03:45 We’ve seen the “Kardashian-ization” of success.
04:53 What can I do to counter the effects of digital narcissism?
05:55 It’s hard to get better at anything if you believe your own self-hype.Business psychologist Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic says there’s been an alarming rise in the percentage of young adults who expect to become famous, and they’re mostly headed for disappointment.

Emotions are running raw during the pandemic. How should we manage our difficult feelings, especially at work?
Weeks of social distancing have fueled a collective emotional rollercoaster of anxiety, stress, frustration, and fear. How can we better manage our emotions as individuals? How emotionally vulnerable can—or should—we be at work? Especially during this crisis, resilient and compassionate emotional intelligence with our colleagues is more essential than ever.
Susan David, a Harvard Medical School psychologist and author of “Emotional Agility”, offers a helpful approach on how to manage difficult emotions—in life and at work—during this challenging time.
Tips for managing difficult emotions:
1. Permit yourself to experience the emotion—it’s a normal response. Openly recognize what you’re feeling, practice “gentle acceptance” that it’s happening, and then respond to that emotion with an open attitude. Let go of what you cannot control.
2. Extend compassion to yourself and to others. Be patient and try to understand the full reality of the situation. Be kind, loving, and courageous.
3. Recognize that difficult emotions are clear signposts to your beliefs and values. Interpret your feelings, even if it’s uncomfortable, to pinpoint what’s most important for you at this time.Learn more about Susan David: http://susandavid.com

Even though we can’t be physically together during the pandemic, is it possible to communicate more effectively through the grid like haze of video chats and virtual meetings?
We talked to body language and presence expert Rachel Cossar about the value of virtual presence and how it dramatically improves every conversation.
Most of us know the basics of setting up the webcam, looking presentable, and using video-chat software. But what can we do to connect more authentically? Cossar explains that there’s more to virtual communication than just talking and seeing each other’s faces. Virtual presence is about bringing intention, focus, and your whole self to the conversation.
Simple ways you can improve your virtual presence:
1. Turn off your selfie cam during video calls to eliminate the biggest distraction.
2. Make sure your camera is at eye level and you’re sitting 30”-36” from the lens for the most natural effect.
3. Practice physical anchoring exercises (grounding, breathing, and stretching) before a meeting to reset and refresh your mind and body.Learn more about Rachel Cossar: https://choreographyforbusiness.com

In 2021, the footwear startup Allbirds was extending its product range into apparel and expanding beyond its online store to open more retail stores around the world. It was also freely sharing its know-how and material innovations with its competitors to try to scale its efforts to decarbonize fashion, by substituting natural materials for conventional petroleum-based materials and leather. But the company also had to find ways to remain differentiated, based on design and comfort.
Harvard Business School professor Mike Toffel and Allbirds co-founder and co-CEO Joey Zwillinger discuss the growing environmental impact of the fashion industry and how the company managed the tension between advancing its environmental mission and staying ahead of competitors in the case, Allbirds: Decarbonizing Fashion.

You work hard, you do your job well, but no one seems to notice or give you credit. Here’s what to do.
Whether you’re looking for a raise, better feedback from your manager, or greater visibility within your company, what can you do to be recognized? It can feel especially challenging if you’re more junior than your colleagues, your ideas are routinely dismissed or mistakenly credited to others, or your direct contributions aren’t easy to show off. Despite your best efforts, what can you do to get the recognition you deserve?
I sought answers from Andréa Long—head of Talent Engagement at Upstart, serial entrepreneur, consultant, and workshop facilitator. If you’re feeling undervalued at work, Andréa suggests clarifying how you’d like your contributions to be recognized, having ongoing constructive conversations with your manager, applying tactics to gain visibility and credibility, and being honest when you’ve exhausted your options and it’s time to move on to another job opportunity.

We’re All Anxious Right Now: Here’s How to Cope Lees meer
30 Mar 2020

Acting on emotion leads to bad decisions, so you need to slow down. Here’s how.
With the news around the COVID-19 pandemic developing quickly, people are making decisions — often quickly — on everything from whether to cancel meetings to how to best project their family and colleagues. In a time of crisis and uncertainty, there are several psychological factors that impact our ability to make decisions. Our brains are responding to a sense of threat, a deep feeling of uncertainty, and a lack of control and information, all of which leads us to make short-sighted decisions that may fill immediate psychological needs but aren’t necessary in the long term. To make better choices, we need to slow down and access the deliberative reasoning part of our brain. Any decision to act should be based on deliberation, sober reflection on data, and discussion with experts — not in reaction to a headline or a tweet.
Based on the following HBR articles:
"Managing the Stress and Uncertainty of Coronavirus" by Morra Aarons-Mele

Don't Bring Your "Whole Self" to Work—Bring Your Best Self Lees meer

"Bring your whole self to work” sounds good in theory—but it’s misguided for senior leaders. The higher you climb, the more your moods and biases shape the culture. Effective leaders know where to draw the line between personal expression and professional responsibility.

Larry Fink at BlackRock: Bridging Purpose and Profit | Cold Call

Larry Fink at BlackRock: Linking Purpose to Profit | Cold Call Lees meer
3 Aug 2023
---
In 2014, Larry Fink started writing letters to the leaders of some of the largest publicly listed companies, urging them to consider the importance of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues.
Fink is the chairman and CEO of BlackRock, one of the largest asset management houses in the world. The firm’s success was rooted in its cost-effective, passive investment products that rely on tracking indices and funds. But Fink wanted his firm to engage with the companies in which they invest and hold them accountable for their social and environmental impacts.
What role should investors play in urging business leaders to take ESG issues more seriously and enforcing compliance? Harvard Business School professor George Serafeim discusses the merits of Fink’s approach, the importance of corporate investments in ESG themes, and how to lead a company driven by purpose and profit in his case, “BlackRock: Linking Purpose to Profit,” (https://store.hbr.org/product/blackrock-linking-purpose-to-profit/120042?sku=120042-PDF-ENG) and his new book Purpose and Profit: How Business Can Lift Up The World (https://www.amazon.com/Purpose-Profit-Business-Lift-World-ebook/dp/B09831184F).
This episode originally aired on Cold Call on September 20, 2022.
