Friction is a part of Feedback with Chris Cloutier [E004] - Speak Up!

This week Chris Cloutier is my guest on the podcast - and not just as my boss or a sponsor of this program - but as an excellent communicator and influential leader and one who I feel is exceptionally talented at delivering GOOD feedback.Even for people with above average communication skills - the necessity to give feedback is often one of the most uncomfortable situations regularly faced in our lives and careers.In this focused conversation - Chris provides his valuable insight on the topic along with several stories while sharing his heart for being a positive influence in others lives.  I knew this needed to be a conversation for an early episode of Speak Up!Chris has massively influenced my own communications journey, and it’s a real privilege to be able to invite him to share on a topic we routinely discuss, as it’s a topic that our working relationship has revolved around for these last several years.Listeners looking for inspiration to improve their skills dealing with feedback will enjoy hearing what Chris has to say.Watch Full Video EpisodeEmail Craig O'Neill HERE.Thank You To Our Partners:The Institute at We Are The Institute.  "Stop stressing over your business, you deserve a good night's sleep.
