“You’re arrogant.” “You’re annoying.” “You won’t stop talking and listen.” “You’re self-centered and selfish.” “Your self-absorbed.” “You’re mean and you make people feel insignificant.”

Do you need some of that in your life? Would you like some honest feedback?

failin.gs is a site that enables you to get honest, anonymous feedback. You can hear from your employees, clients, friends, family members or anyone else you’d like to solicit. You set up and account and invite others to comment and you’re up and running. You can make your profile and feedback public, if you wish, or you can lock it down and make it private.

Once you set up your account you can send a link via email, Twitter or Facebook inviting feedback. If you make your profile public you can respond to the feedback and your friends can agree or disagree with what others have written.

This is really a great service. It’s scary, but it’s valuable to learn from others. I’ve participated in a 360 degree feedback process. It was powerful, disturbing and, ultimately, very helpful. If you think I’m a pain in the ass now you can’t imagine what I was like before that session.

You’ve got to submit your email address to get an invite to join the site. It seems like it took a week or two for a response. I’ve got a handful of invites. Shoot me an email if you need one.

I’d encourage you to give failin.gs a try. If you’re not happy with how it’s going you can, with one click, delete your account and all the feedback.
