Feedback happens when:

  1. There’s a high confidence it will be well received. Are you easy to give feedback to?
  2. There’s a likelihood it will make a difference. Have you demonstrated a willingness to change based on feedback?
  3. The work has been inspected. Are you clearly holding up your work for review that might elicit feedback?
  4. The work is well understood. Have you communicated in detail about the work and highlighted areas that might be especially relevant to get feedback on?
  5. It is requested. Ask and ye shall receive. And don’t just ask once. Ask again. And then again. “Is there anything else?”

Pave the way for feedback, and feedback shall arrive.
