As a counter-point, I've known people that would take this as condescending right off the bat, so YMMV.

- robbmorganf 6y agoAre they more receptive to feedback when you just launch straight into it? Or is there something different that you do to prime them to be receptive?
- fastball 6y agoAs in it doesn't get that far. I've literally seen men say "would you mind if I give you some feedback" and that was received as a condescending thing to ask someone. This is of course anecdotal, so I'm not trying to paint anyone with a broad brush. Just wanted to point out that in my experience, asking if you can give feedback/advice/etc isn't always well-received. I can't imagine unsolicited feedback would've been any better received in those situations.
- tachyonbeam 6y agoIf people take this as condescending then maybe they aren't mature enough to be worth interacting with, though.
