How do you handle criticism?

[Anonymous]

Are you usually sensitive to it

Or can you handle it well

[MTC29]

I can handle it, if the person dispensing the criticism is a subject matter expert.

I hold a Master or Engineering degree in Materials Science, but someone who specializes in Polymer engineering will know more about elastomers than I do.

What if someone was using criticism on your work. On the job you do?

[MTC29]

If it came from a superior, I'd have to find out why and how I could correct it. If it came from a co-worker, I'd have to consider the source.

I'd say I handle criticism well. I try to take note of what the person tells me and then decide how much of it is worth taking onboard.

I’m usually sensitive to it

[Asker]

Same. I feel I need "tough skin"

[Pinay_ako]

Depends if it’s constructive or destructive

[BarryLiverstone]

If it’s constructive I ask for it
