High Performers Need Feedback, Too - Harvard Business Review
[[link removed]}&lead=419599&emailid=88140&nl=daily]
High performers are essential to a team?s success, often producing
significantly more output than their peers. But research shows that
they often receive lower-quality feedback. Managers tend to focus on
lower performers, neglecting the development needs of high performers.
High performers tend to thrive on feedback and are motivated by it. To
engage and retain high performers, managers should provide
constructive feedback, highlighting areas of growth. It is advisable
to avoid exaggerated or fixed-mindset language, which can be
demotivating. When giving feedback, focus on skills and behaviors
instead of personality traits. Moreover, be mindful of reinforcing
negative stereotypes, which can affect underrepresented groups more
profoundly. Finally, map out clear paths for growth, offering specific
guidance on how high performers can advance.

Is the Labor Movement Screwed No Matter Who Wins the Election? - The

Donald Trump wore cufflinks and a tie?but no hairnet, or company
visor, or rubber-soled shoes?while scooping fries into red cardboard
containers last week, at a McDonald?s outside Philadelphia. He was
guided through the motions of the fry station by a reedy, goateed
young man, an actual employee, who had been caught up in the
candidate?s maudlin cosplay of worker solidarity. The scene was
designed to troll Kamala Harris, whose summertime stint at a
McDonald?s during college is fake news, according to Trump. ?I?ve now
worked for fifteen minutes more than Kamala at McDonald?s,? he said.
Within hours, he was selling commemorative T-shirts with a picture of

In a race that has been defined by gender politics, getting women to

Is the Labor Movement Screwed No Matter Who Wins the Election? - The
New Yorker [[link removed]}&lead=419599&emailid=88140&nl=daily]
Donald Trump wore cufflinks and a tie?but no hairnet, or company
visor, or rubber-soled shoes?while scooping fries into red cardboard
containers last week, at a McDonald?s outside Philadelphia. He was
guided through the motions of the fry station by a reedy, goateed
young man, an actual employee, who had been caught up in the
candidate?s maudlin cosplay of worker solidarity. The scene was
designed to troll Kamala Harris, whose summertime stint at a
McDonald?s during college is fake news, according to Trump. ?I?ve now
worked for fifteen minutes more than Kamala at McDonald?s,? he said.
Within hours, he was selling commemorative T-shirts with a picture of
him smiling at the drive-through window above the phrase
?MAGADonald?s,? a cartoony wave of platinum-colored hair over the ?D.?

In a race that has been defined by gender politics, getting women to

who remains neck-and-neck with Republican former President Donald
Trump, has made abortion rights and the importance of giving women
freedom over their bodies a central part of her final message. She has
stressed Trump?s role appointing three justices to the Supreme Court
