Feedback

 Feedback!!

Not to share feedback… Quick glance on my learning on while I received and predominantly on sharing..

It is very sensitive as it sounds and if not handled properly then, it might be another pain to handle.. .👀

Quickly,what does google say about feedback: “information about reactions to a product, a person's performance of a task, etc. which is used as a basis for improvement.” .. Err.. I am not impressed google.. ! you could say in little more fancy way.. Well, Ideally, the feedback process is part of our day to day life, to keep some one aware of their performance and how far they reached towards the target which is defined at organization level. Err.. Google is better. I know.. 😉

It is quite an interesting process, if you are a leader, likes to mentor people, (trust me, they should only do it). In other hand, If you are not a people person, then there is a hell waiting for both parties!!😈

Well, while I share feedback , can I speak my mind. ??. A Big NO.. Hmmm. I am person who speaks of  mind.. If I do not say what I feel,  I cannot get sleep.. Manufacturing defect.! It was definitely a lot of struggle for me to practice to become a people person than being myself..!

The important qualities that I learnt and requires to share feedback, in no particular order..💫

  • Tone of voice 
  • Body Language 
  • Words 
  • Look at eyes 
  • Be honest 
  • LISTEN

and most importantly being empathy but not being completely carried away with the emotions and follow the process!  it works and it worked for me!

 Yes, it requires lot of practice.. We call it as SANDWICH Process!! Prepare the sandwich and freeze it for a while.. During the meeting, heat and deliver it.. There is no room for on-spot preparation n delivery.. 


Also, the problem is that while giving feedback , criticism always pops up. And most of the criticism  are not the positive ones or either received appropriately.

Well, while receiving , being open minded  and acceptance is more important than any other defending qualities.. I have had amazing leaders who shared constructive feedback which helped me to reach where I am today! Thanks to all my leaders..

I have mentioned mostly taking official life.. but it works at personal life too..!! No side effects..

That’s take on today’s blog.. Meet you in next blog..

 29th of 30 day blog.. 😊

Kanni Maadam

Kanni Maadam- Book Review.. First of all, writing the pure Tamizh names to echo the same is really tough.. However here is my take.. I must appreciate the writer for writing it so lengthy. Even though in few places the description of the situation is dragging, but is not failing to impress neither it is hurts the story line.. The storyline, takes back to the world of king and war! Once upon a time, Tamilnadu was open to dangerous. Everyone wants to rule it because of the wealth or someone gave them space to stay! The story revolves around Madurai and Nellai. During that time, the primary rulers were Pandiyas  (Madurai) and Cholas (Nellai). During the thayathi war, Parakrama pandya was killed by Kulasekhara Pandiya. Before dying, he sought help from Illangarapuran to fight with Kulasekaran. Illllangarapuran defeated Kulasekara Pandyan and made Veerapandiyan as king i.e Parakirama Pandya’s son. So it become like a joke i.e I am wearing a shirt but it is not mine.. or in same line...

Untold!

Secret🤐 A key to success or failure or a twist. A burden one willing to carry for a lifelong. A person tells to  a friend and ask to keep it as secret. Do you think it is secret? When it is known to more than one person, it is no more a secret! Right?👭 Today we are going to look at the secrets that one hold tight to themselves . Example, One would be starving to maintain zero figure and to the outside world, they would project them as foodie. Silly though! An embarrassing moment where one does not know to laugh at their mistakes! An illness they are suffering A talent etc.. Why one do that? Is it due inferiority or  terrified of society judgement?
