Last week a colleague told me she is having a tough time at work. Apparently she is receiving critical feedback from her manager and peers, which has led her to doubting her skills and getting demotivated. She admits that the feedback is valid, but it’s overwhelming and doesn’t know how to address it. I told her about the cycle of motivation and provided some resources about impostor syndrome. However I didn’t want to play pop psychology with someone who is struggling. Does anyone have experience navigating such a situation? How to deal with valid critical feedback without feeling overwhelmed and losing motivation?
