📢 Feedback From Me
How I provide feedback and what I value most in our working relationship.
👍I am committed to providing direct feedback.
👍The #1 way to succeed is to make measurable business impact that's in-line with our delivery commitments & technical vision. If you're not sure how your role or work output contributes to business impact and/or if it's not clear how to measure it, do not proceed until we are aligned.
✋I make it a point to show appreciation every day. Should you consistently exceed my already elevated expectations, you can expect recognition, both privately and publicly.
⚠️I approach our work with immense passion, and my communication may come across as confrontational at times because I'm willing to strongly agree or disagree with you. In case it rubs you the wrong way (which is bound to happen occasionally), here's why:
1️⃣I'm genuinely excited about the substance of our disagreements (ideally, this should be the most enjoyable aspect of our collaboration, especially if our working relationship is solid).
2️⃣There may be instances where I believe something you've done is inadequately constructed, incomplete, or simply doesn't meet my expectations. Like everyone, I have certain triggers that make me view my colleagues unfavourably, and these are mine:
My Key Values
💪 Grit
You're giving up too soon and aren't showing enough grit. I value perseverance and resilience when facing challenges. I truly appreciate it when you demonstrate creativity, tenacity, and the ability to overcome adversity.
🤓 Rigour
You aren't showing enough rigour. Rigorous examination of relevant evidence, integration of information from various sources, and the application of sound judgment to make well-informed decisions is something I highly value.
💥 Impact Focus
Connecting your work to the impact on our quarterly delivery commitments is crucial. I admire when you can maintain a clear alignment between your priorities and the company's goals, without wasting time on less important matters.
🤝 Collaborative Mindset
Creating a collaborative and positive work environment is essential. I value when you bring a sense of realistic optimism, humility, and most importantly, self-awareness to our teams. Understanding different social styles and showing empathy, compassion, assumed benevolence, and humanity are highly appreciated.
