Description

Struggling to get honest feedback from your team or colleagues? You’re not alone—and you’re not doing anything wrong. In this episode of The Inspired Healthcare Leader, we unpack why traditional feedback-seeking often backfires, and how one simple shift—asking for advice instead—can change everything. Backed by research from Harvard and brought to life through a powerful real-world story, this episode offers a fresh, science-backed approach to getting real insight, building trust, and creating a culture of continuous improvement. If you’ve ever felt like you’re flying blind as a leader, this one’s for you.
