Tell Me How I'm Doing: A Fable about the Importance of Giving Feedback"Just imagine being completely denied any feedback whatsoever no guidance, no praise, and no constructive criticism for the things you do. If you received no input at all, how much initiative would you demonstrate? Would your productivity be high, or low? What would your morale be like as time went on? And if you experienced this kind of treatment in the workplace, how likely would you be to turn down a job offer to go somewhere else? The sad fact is

"Just imagine being completely denied any feedback whatsoever -- no guidance, no praise, and no constructive criticism for the things you do. If you received no input at all, how much initiative would you demonstrate? Would your productivity be high, or low? What would your morale be like as time went on? And if you experienced this kind of treatment in the workplace, how likely would you be to turn down a job offer to go somewhere else? The sad fact is that most of us take feedback for granted. But interpersonal feedback is a critical nutrient for everyone, whether at home, at work, or elsewhere -- the psychological equivalent of food and water. Without strong, clear feedback to use as a reference point, people are incapable of functioning fully and productively. Yet as important as it is to let people know how they're doing, most of us lack the skill to consistently deliver good, constructive feedback. Tell Me How I'm Doing illustrates the importance of feedback using a simple fable in which a beleaguered manager recognizes the enormous impact feedback can have in his organization...by experiencing firsthand what it feels like to go without it. The book then provides step-by-step guidance for how you can improve your own ability to relate to the people around you and become more effective in every sphere of your life. The book helps you take a personal inventory of your own feedback style, and introduces you to the four distinct types of feedback -- supportive, corrective, abusive, and insignificant -- and clarifies when to use the first two, and how to avoid the others. You'll also learn about the ten essential dimensions of feedback, including how to: Use a Plan -- Give your feedback some preparatory thought, and then deliver it with a clear solution in mind. Be Specific -- Get your point across by citing particular examples of the behavior you're discussing. Focus on Behaviors -- Target the factors that can be seen or measured, rather than concentrating on personalities, attitudes, or labels. Determine Time and Place -- Know when and where to give feedback for maximum effect. Give Balanced Feedback -- Provide the right mix of supportive and corrective feedback. By understanding how to interact more constructively with your peers, you can create a positive, productive, and dynamic culture that serves everyone well. Tell Me How I'm Doing is an engaging story and an essential guidebook for understanding how to use feedback to communicate goals, improve performance, and achieve greater success in every aspect of your life."

Only SPF 15. Best For Overcast Days or Less Exposure.
I love Coppertone Sport sunscreens because they stay on longer than many and don't drip painful lotion into my eyes when I sweat. This spray-on version is only SPF 15, so, as a fair person, I can use it in direct sun only for 30-60 minutes of exposure or if I'm outside during an overcast day when, yes, I can still burn. SPF blocks 93% of the sun's rays, which sounds like a lot until you consider that SPF 50 blocks 98% of the rays. Sprays like this are especially useful if I'm by myself and need to reach difficult places such as my back. For the rest of me, I spray my skin, then rub in for complete coverage. For my face and neck, I spray into my hands, then apply to those areas. You don't want to spray directly on your face when you can inhale it or get it in your eyes. If you don't have sun-sensitive skin or don't expect to be in direct sunlight for long, then this is a great option for easy application. Just make sure you apply enough of it and reapply throughout the day. -- Debbie Lee Wesselmann

Summer Essential at great price
Great deal ahead of the summer sun. Product was the perfect match for my golf trip. Felt like it held up even in the heat and sweaty environment.

Great sunburn protection for beach days
Style: Sunscreen Lotion 70 SPF, Size: 6.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Sunscreen Lotion 70 SPF, Size: 6.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
If you burn easily like I do, this sunscreen is an absolute lifesaver. I used it during a full day out in the intense sun and beach heat, and it protected my skin perfectly—not a single spot of redness! What I love most is that it works beautifully for both the face and body. It applies smoothly, absorbs quickly, and doesn't leave that heavy, suffocating white cast that a lot of high-SPF sunscreens do. It also handles sweat and water incredibly well without running into my eyes and stinging. It has a nice, subtle beachy scent that isn’t overpowering. This is officially my go-to sunscreen for outdoor activities!

Lightweight, Effective & Smells Great
Style: Sunscreen Lotion 70 SPF, Size: 6.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This sunscreen works amazing! The Neutrogena Beach Defense SPF 70 gives excellent sun protection without feeling too heavy or greasy on the skin. I really like that it doesn’t have a strong overpowering smell like many other sunscreens. It’s lightweight, absorbs quickly, and feels comfortable for everyday wear or beach days. The water resistance is great and it protects well even during long hours outside. Perfect for the whole family and definitely worth buying again!
