Founder Feedback with Anna Beard

This Week at Breakfast Lab

Feedback can either fuel your progress… or completely shut you down. In this session, we’re working on making it the first one.

Together, we’ll explore what actually makes feedback useful (and what makes it spiral), how to ask for the kind of input you actually need, and how to give feedback in a way that builds trust, not tension. Using Liz Lerman’s Critical Response Process© as a guide, you’ll get a simple, structured approach to navigating feedback conversations with more clarity and less ego.

We’ll walk through the framework, practice it together, and help you build a tool you can take into one-on-ones, team conversations, and customer interactions. Expect to laugh a little, learn a lot, and leave feeling more confident (and maybe even excited) to get feedback and get back to work.

About the Presenter

Anna Beard is a thoughtful facilitator who brings a community-centered approach to communication, collaboration, and creative work. She is passionate about helping individuals and teams build trust through better feedback, making space for honest conversations that actually move ideas forward.
