As a nascent marketer, I misjudged how crucial feedback was to success. But when I was promoted to head a marketing and communications team, that lack of appreciation for feedback slowly eroded my team’s functionality. While I had a leadership philosophy founded on open communication, I underestimated how intentional and vigilant I needed to be.
But a few months into my then new role, an employee informed me things were not operating as smoothly as they once had. I was shocked! Weren’t we producing exceptional campaigns? Weren’t we meeting deadlines and making revenue goals?
