Management - Leadership

January 3rd, I had the opportunity to spend a delightful, informative almost 90 minutes talking to Daniel Robert Sullivan. One of the many things I wanted to clarify with him was the huge difference between how feedback is given/received in the performing arts versus the organizational world. He delivered a powerful message to me. He told me that the very first thing you are taught (and better learn) in acting class is to simply acknowledge any feedback, positive and/or negative, with two simple words: "'Thank You." So simple, so powerful.
