About this episode

What if you could tell your co-workers what you really think of them? At one of the world’s most successful hedge funds, everyone is rated and ranked constantly – in front of everyone. They’ve figured out how to embrace negative feedback, and they swear it’s essential to their success. Adam Grant shows how you can learn to take criticism well – and get better at dishing it out.

This is an episode of WorkLife with Adam Grant, another podcast in the TED Audio Collective.

WorkLife's sixth season comes out September 19th.
