In recent years, leading executives from firms like Google, Bridgewater, and Netflix have touted the advantages of a work environment marked by candid feedback. Employees seem to have bought into the benefits, too. In a 2019 survey, 94% said corrective feedback improved their performance when presented well.

Dealing with employees' negative emotions isn’t easy, but knowing what to do or say can make a huge difference to their well-being, the quality of your relationships with them, and team performance.

That’s a mistake. Research shows that teams whose leaders acknowledge members’ emotions perform significantly better than teams whose leaders don’t.
You Don’t Find Your Purpose — You Build It
on hbr.org
We’re all looking for purpose. Most of us feel that we’ve never found it, we’ve lost it, or in some way we’re falling short. But in the midst of all this angst, we’re also suffering from fundamental misconceptions about purpose. The first misconception is that purpose is a thing you find. The purpose is a thing you build, not a thing you find. And most of us will have multiple sources of purpose in our lives — in our work, family, or community, for instance. Just as we all find meaning in multiple places, the sources of that meaning can and do change over time.
