    Your Brain on Feedback: The Science of Belonging at Work

    We call feedback a gift, yet our brains often experience it as a threat. That disconnect shapes who grows, who disengages, and who quietly gets managed out. And how does this impact people with invisible disabilities such as neurodiversity?  Ama Agyapong, principal training strategist and CEO of Inclusion Enterprises, and Beth Sirull, president and CEO of the National Organization on Disability, unpack the neuroscience behind feedback and belonging — and why some conversations spark growth while others trigger defensiveness.  This episode digs into the subtle, everyday bias that filters who receives developmental feedback, why it’s important for leaders to admit when they make mistakes, and the one change managers can make today to move the needle.  Shortened Blurb (for newsletter): Why does feedback feel like a threat, and who pays the price? Ama Agyapong, CEO of Inclusion Enterprises, and Beth Sirull, president and CEO of the National Organization on Disability, explore the neuroscience of feedback, the subtle bias that shapes who gets developed and who gets managed out, and how to create a safe space for people with invisible disabilities. Learn the one change managers can make today to turn feedback into belonging.  Subscribe to the All Things Work newsletter to get the latest episodes, expert insights, and additional resources delivered straight to your inbox: https://shrm.co/fg444d    ---  Explore SHRM’s all-new flagships.

    Ditch the Dashboard: Career Growth That Actually Sticks
