Ask and give feedback

It is important to both ask and give feedback if you want to grow. Oftentimes, we get into a routine doing the same thing daily. To avoid repeating mistakes and learning to grow it is important to ask your coworkers and managers for constructive feedback.

It is also important to give feedback when something doesn’t work. Again, if you want your team and company to grow, voicing your opinions will go a long way. It can be scary and uncomfortable voicing an opinion when it goes against everyone else’s, but sometimes that opposing view opens everyone’s minds up to what was missed.
