As valuable as feedback is, I often interact with organizations where very little feedback is offered or sought.  Sometimes it's because independence is highly valued.  Sometimes it is because there is a strong sense of "I have no right to judge someone."  Sometimes it's a backlash to a history of severe, harsh judgment.

Whatever the reason, I also find that truly excellent organizations have individuals who welcome and offer feedback frequently.

If your organization is not like that (and you'd like more help in your growth), you need not engage in a personal quest to change the culture just to obtain some good insights.  Adopt the guidance in today's article, "Is the 'Little You' Watching?", and you'll find some great new awareness provided by a friend you may not have realized was so committed to your building effective relationships.
