As they grow up, kids (hopefully) learn how to self-sooth productively. How productive is your self-soothing? When you’re stressed, do you have emotional “props” that you reach for?

I mean the real, formal, sit down and talk type of meetings that allow the employee, peer, or manager to say whats on their mind. Many leaders I know schedule 15 minutes every day to get caught up. To give feedback.

Many believe that when they request feedback from their staff, peers, and manager that they will hear the unvarnished truth about their performance; seldom does that happen.
