When you give them feedback, they embrace it positively. They say things like, “Thank you for telling me that. It helps me to know I come across that way. I didn’t know that.” Or “I really took what you said to heart, and here is what I did.” Or “Thanks for caring enough to bring this to my attention. I needed to hear this.” There is some sort of appreciation for the feedback, as they see it as something of value, even if it is hard to hear. You might hear them offer a response like, “Well, this was tough to hear, but it is good. It will help me even if it hurts.”
