Feedback: How to be aware of when you are NOT receiving feedback

How to be aware of when you are NOT receiving feedback
Sue Knight

Notice when you are
1. Defending yourself
2. Explaining yourself
3. Rationalising away the feedback
4. Ignoring it
5. Pretending you don't understand it
6. Diverting the conversation on to anything other than open acceptance of it
7. Attacking back with something like 'well you do that too!'
8. Saying 'Yes I know'
9. Saying (or thinking) 'well other people don't say that/say differently'
10Hearing it but doing nothing with it
11. Feeling hurt

This list was adapted from the Manual of Leadership Exercises - NLP and Leadership by Sue Knight published by Peter Honey and available mid May 2000

In my opinion, "feeling hurt" does not mean that I am not receiving feedback. It is all right and normal to feel hurt ( as we are human being witht feeling).

We are not receiving the feed back only when we are not doing anything about it.
