The Art of Feedback: What Great Leaders Do Differently


In this new video, John Dempsey explores one of the most essential — yet often misunderstood — elements of leadership: feedback.

Feedback is powerful. When it’s done well, it builds trust, confidence, and clarity. When it’s off the mark, it can create confusion or hesitation. But both types of feedback — good and bad — teach us something valuable about how we communicate, connect, and grow.

In this discussion, John shares practical insights on:

  • How to give feedback that inspires, not intimidates.
  • How to receive feedback with openness and curiosity.
  • Why feedback is a two-way dialogue, not a one-time event.

At its core, feedback is about respect and growth — seeing potential in others and helping them reach it.
