There's a difference between feedback and criticism, and often what we get is the latter dressed up as the former. So we pull the two apart: feedback is clear, actionable and comes from someone who wants you to win, while criticism can be someone venting and making it your problem. We also dig into why women often get judged on personality rather than work (abrasive, strident, 'too intense'), and why 'you're not ready' is the most useless thing you can be told after missing out on a role.
Then in Powrsuit style, we share how to be proactive and drive your own constructive feedback, check-ins and progress.
