Trust based feedback

This sounds like an oxymoron. In so many situations, feedback makes giver and receiver tense. It threatens, weakens or diminishes trust. It's not a function of having and giving feedback. It's a function of choice. When someone offers us a choice, about anythjng, we trust them. 

In trust based feedback, we genuinely ask people of they want specific kinds of feedback and deliver on their affirmation. We genuinely ask others if they want to give us specific kinds of feedback. Both build and deepen trust. 

With trust we are receptive and open. Without it we are defensive and protective. Trust becomes the difference between growth and fixed mindsets.
