Revisit & enjoy: Making sense of leadership, management, and the feedback we’d rather avoid

As we wind down the year, we’re resurfacing one of the most downloaded comfyHQ episodes—a listener favorite about three things leaders wrestle with all the time: feedback, the leadership/management divide, and the workplace words we toss around without checking for shared meaning.

In this rerun, we explore:

  • How to respond to feedback you don’t agree with (and why “thank you” is still the best first move)
  • Why separating “leadership” from “management” can limit our growth, and what changes when we see them as two sides of the same role
  • Six Big Idea words—mission, vision, culture, and more—that shape how we work, but often mean different things to different people

If you’re navigating end-of-year reviews or gearing up for planning season, this episode offers a practical reset: clearer language, steadier leadership, and a healthier way to think about feedback.
