The Importance of Feedback in the Workplace

Receiving feedback is crucial for employees, especially in the tech industry, as the lack of it can lead to negative spirals of self-doubt. Many individuals feel they are underperforming without any concrete evidence, which often stems from an absence of communication from supervisors. This situation creates a cycle where employees become fearful of seeking validation, further exacerbating their feelings of inadequacy. The discussion highlights the need for open dialogues about performance to establish a healthier work environment.
