Are you tired of zipping your lips? Not following your instincts? All for the sake of being polite and not wanting to step on anyone's toes, then today’s episode is especially for you. Being polite is defined as behaving in a way that is socially correct, the catch here is the word socially. Let’s dive into how politeness is not the same thing as kindness, especially in your workplace. 

During today’s episode, I focus on the importance of feedback and how it should be done in the workplace. I address the dangers of suppressed feedback, the importance of being open to others’ interpretations, and the need for kindness over politeness in corporate America. 

In today’s episode, I cover:

• Tips for providing constructive feedback
• The difference between being polite and being kind
• Being direct and timely with feedback to avoid confusion 
• The importance of understanding context and human behavior 
• Feedback challenges during the pandemic
