The Power of Feedback: That Builds or Breaks ?

The Self-Help Podcast with Deepali Nagrani

Send us a text

We share why feedback often fails and how small shifts—asking permission, naming the situation, and ending with a question—turn critique into growth. Stories, scripts, and practical habits show how to build trust, not fear, and create a culture where feedback is safe.
• separating behavior from identity in feedback
• tone, timing and setting as delivery levers
• asking permission before giving input
• using questions to invite self-reflection and ownership
• positive reinforcement as a performance driver
• leaders modeling vulnerability and safety
• simple scripts for specific, actionable feedback
• turning feedback into a culture of trust and autonomy
