Your team, your department and your company do not want you blindsided by perceptions. They want you to know how you?re doing and they want you to want to know how you?re doing. The people around you, however, are at different comfort levels when it comes to face to face conversations about your communication, your credibility, your leadership and, ultimately, your potential for promotion. It?s easy to tell you, face to face, how terrific you are. It?s not so easy to be critical.
