We all receive feedback, but we can't control who gives it to us. For that reason, you’re likely better off investing in how to receive feedback than in how to give it.

If you're like most people, feedback can be difficult to receive, and it doesn’t always come from people who are good at giving feedback. Even if you already know that receiving feedback is important to both your personal and professional development, you're probably still left wondering "Why is receiving feedback so difficult and anxiety-ridden, and how can I get better at making use of the feedback I receive?”
