The Art of Giving and Receiving Feedback Feedback isn’t a performance review. It’s a growth tool. Bad managers avoid it. Weak managers sugarcoat it. Great managers use it to make people better. The key? ✅ Give feedback in real-time, not just at review time. ✅ Make it specific—"do this, not that" is better than vague advice. ✅ Be open to receiving it, not just giving it. If your team isn’t improving, ask yourself—are you giving them the right feedback? Enroll your managers in Boundless, and we’ll help them understand this—and much more. They’ll develop the skills to lead with impact, drive the organization forward, and deliver real value. Join us today: https://lnkd.in/e_x3VzRJ

Without trust, you’re just a person with a title. Your team won’t follow you if they don’t trust you. They won’t be honest with you. They won’t push themselves for you. Trust isn’t about authority. It’s about consistency. ✅ Say what you mean. Do what you say. ✅ Own your mistakes. ✅ Listen before you speak. Want a high-performing team? Earn their trust first. Join Boundless and learn how to become a leader of impact.

Technical skills get you hired. Emotional intelligence gets you promoted. You can be the smartest person in the room, but if you: ❌ Can’t read the room ❌ Struggle to connect with your team ❌ Let emotions dictate decisions You won’t last long as a leader. Great managers: ✅ Listen more than they talk ✅ Adapt their communication to different people ✅ Stay calm under pressure and make thoughtful decisions Leadership isn’t just about what you know. It’s about how you make people feel. How would you rate your emotional intelligence as a manager? Join Boundless and learn more about this key component of managing. Talk about it among a group of professional peers working to grow as a leader. https://lnkd.in/dQcsXtTB

Most first-time managers fail for the same reasons. They micromanage. They avoid tough conversations. They focus on tasks instead of people. And the worst? They think they have to do it all themselves. The best new managers? They figure it out fast. ✅ They delegate instead of hoarding work. ✅ They give real feedback, not vague niceties. ✅ They lead people, not just manage tasks. If you’re stepping into management, learn from the mistakes of those before you. Your team’s success depends on it. Join Boundless and learn more about becoming a better manager, a better leader, and building a team that thrives. https://lnkd.in/dQcsXtTB

Managers execute. Leaders inspire. The best? They do both. A company full of visionaries with no execution? Chaos. A company full of taskmasters with no vision? Stagnation. Your managers need to lead—not just oversee. Your leaders need to manage—not just dream. The right balance builds culture. Keeps top talent. Drives real results. If your management team isn’t where it should be, enrolling them in Boundless is a great first step to sharpening their skills and leveling up your business. https://lnkd.in/e3D_9Haa

What makes a great manager? It’s not the title. It’s not the years of experience. It’s not even the results. It’s how they treat their people. Howard Schultz didn’t build Starbucks by micromanaging. He built it by investing in people—offering healthcare to part-time employees, calling them “partners,” and creating a culture of loyalty. Satya Nadella didn’t turn Microsoft around with more rules. He did it by shifting the mindset—from “know-it-all” to “learn-it-all.” Great managers don’t push for results only. - They develop people. - They set clear expectations. - They lead with empathy and accountability. Want to be a great manager? Start by investing in your team. Join Boundless and become a better manager. https://lnkd.in/dQcsXtTB
