If they've instructed me then I've also instructed them, because the information sharing is two-way .. but I really don't see it as more than sharing and collaboration.
I agree with this sentiment. I think my T might share her observations of my experience, but ulimately, it is up to me to accept what she is saying, or not. Most often, not...and she is ok with that. I think she probably learns something from me, though I am not sure what. She seems very open to whatever comes in the room, and doesn't try to sway where we are going one way or another.
