Yes Doug, listening to others is one thing but accepting criticism is another. Once did a Technical Instructors course that tore everyone and their work to bits. It was meant to teach you to listen to and accept criticism, and it worked, well with me at least.
I did interview and assessment courses, where my assessment technique was always called into question and criticised.

Actually its quite character building, and after a while (after you get some practical experience), it makes you realise that without the ability to stand back and criticise yourself, its easy to make a fool of yourself.

It's all part of life's rich pattern so I'm told, but without it you loose your objectivity. However, we are all human, and we all make mistakes. That too is part of life's rich pattern.

I, just as you, have failings, but hopefully we can see beyond them.
