What is the difference between feedback and criticism?

<p>They are the same thing - sorta - both are letting someone know they did something incorrectly or that they can improve something. </p> <p>And yet, they aren't the same at all. After asking Audrey Cooper, Michelle Brady-Palmer, and Brandon Mahoney what they thought, it seems the difference is intent as well as how the information is received. </p> <p>It is entirely possible for someone to think they are giving feedback but for it to be taken as criticism or even as an attack.</p> <p>In this conversation I shared an example of my trying to give someone feedback and them telling me I was wrong to feel the way I did.</p> <p>Listen in and then let us know what you think. How do you distinguish between feedback and criticism? </p> <p>To learn about the panelists, please visit their LinkedIn profiles: Audrey Cooper: https://www.linkedin.com/in/audreycooper1/ Michelle Brady-Palmer: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michellebradypalmer/  Brandon Mahoney: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brandoncmahoney/  Dr Robyn Odegaard: https://www.linkedin.com/in/robynodegaard/</p> <p>#QuickHits are designed to exercise your brain by letting you listen in on an unscripted conversation to get other people's thoughts on various subjects.
