Dealing with Criticism in Leadership

Handling criticism is an inevitable part of leadership as all leaders face doubters, critics, and second-guessers. Effective leaders understand that criticism is a part of the job and embrace it rather than avoid it. The more successful and visible a leader becomes, the more critics they will encounter. A proactive approach involves learning to live with criticism and leading boldly through it, understanding that it comes with making a difference in the leadership role.
