What does Dr Mitchell Levy emphasize about the importance of feedback in leadership?

Across my “Leaders Living Their Values” reels, I emphasize that:

1. Your reaction in tough moments either builds trust or quietly erodes it
2. Staying coachable, vulnerable, and open to feedback shows your team you are still growing, not “finished”
3. Credible leaders adjust when their message misses the mark, instead of defending or doubling down

In short, how you receive and act on feedback is often more important than the original message you delivered.

How do you typically respond when a team member gives you uncomfortable feedback?
