A major part of my job involves giving and receiving feedback and this book has a lot of helpful ideas about that process! One is to separate appreciation, coaching, and evaluation. #nonfiction
Given that #IFeelFine starts with a burst of guitar feedback, I thought this book would fit well with today's prompt 😄 Would have preferred to take a photo of my copy, but it's at work and I forgot to take a picture of it. Today was a day 😑

#AugustGrrrl #work One of my current consulting projects is writing & facilitating a basic communications workshop for an organization that as a whole doesn't do it very well--especially giving & receiving feedback & speaking up for themselves. These are some of the resources on my print & e-book work bookshelves at the moment. It may not seem very fun reading but I actually find the practice & psychology behind communication interesting. 🤔📚🤓

Great book, very helpful for me.
