Thanks very much for being here, right? We are good. We are live. We're just gonna give it a couple of minutes while I wait for the last couple of people to arrive in the room. Victoria wasn't due to be here. It's great to see her. Good to see you, Tim, as always. Thanks for Martin. I owe you an apology. I'm looking over here at the list, which is why I'm looking down. I put two and two together and came up with seven. Um, Darren reminded me 'cause I didn't recognize the surname and I don't think, just didn't add up.

Our first segment on how to give feedback

  Nathan Simmonds: So Martin, thanks very much for being here. Me Masu. Uh, Gareth, thank you very much for being here. Fabian, good to see you. Colin. Good to see you. Last couple of people just arriving maybe 'cause it's glorious sunshine. Everyone's gone out for lunch. Where are we today? Pens at the red aim. He says, on a scale of one to 10, how was your weekend? One being for rubbish, 10 being phenomenal. Where are we and how are we facing into the week? Got some 10. Got some. Nice, nice, good weekends in everyone. Claire, great to see you. Thanks for being here. Just gonna give it 30 more seconds. Eight. Ready for the week. Nice. 10 for the weekend. Eight for today. Ah, that's still good. Nathan Simmonds: Just letting everyone get warmed up, getting in their seats, getting comfortable, making sure I've got the right pens. I've forgotten which pens run out. So we might find out that in a minute. He says, let's make sure we get everyone set up for success before we dive into this. First of all, mobile phones. Hold 'em higher. Let's turn 'em on. Let's turn the little airplane on. Let's zero out the distraction a hundred percent, but a hundred percent attention on what we're doing here today. Nathan Simmonds: Also, making sure you've got a drink available. We wanna keep, make sure that you are hydrated and keep your brain lubricated to help this learning stick. And finally, as always, you want a fresh page for fresh thinking so that you can take note of those things that you want to remember and remind yourself about so you can reignite that thinking and help keep expanding the ideas and the concepts we're sharing. Nathan Simmonds: Still a couple more people just arriving as we're facing into this on their way slowly. What are we covering today? Feedback and giving feedback. And you know, in part also receiving feedback. 'cause you know, if you can't, it's like breathing when we're giving feedback. If you can't breathe in fully, you can't breathe out fully. Hope this makes sense. If you're not able to receive feedback, you're never gonna be able to give the feedback. Nathan Simmonds: So we're, we're gonna be covering that over the next four days. We're gonna be looking at the mindset behind feedback and what makes it work. We're gonna be looking at the structures that we can peg our conversations on, and we're gonna be looking at some foundational and advanced ways of delivering that feedback, using that structure and maintaining that mindset. Hope this is gonna be useful. Nathan Simmonds: Let's do this. Chelsea, good to see you Lana. Thanks for being here. Amazing. So welcome to today's sticky learning with me.
