Hi John! Yes valid criticism. Though I do find many organizations and people use “feedback is a gift” to mean “all feedback is helpful” without much nuance.

Hi John! Yes valid criticism. Though I do find many organizations and people use “feedback is a gift” to mean “all feedback is helpful” without much nuance. Writing a book makes you realize, statistically, how noisy feedback is. There are trends for sure. But you ignore 80% of it. Maybe 80% is too high for a performance review, but a good data point that one persons PoV on you is not gospel.
