About this workshop

A person’s ability to deliver and receive feedback with an open mind will have a decisive impact on their effectiveness as a manager, a colleague, and a direct report. Participants learn the neuroscience behind both positive and constructive feedback and how to make it one of their most effective tools to improve motivation and performance.

Our curiosity-centered approach asks "What's behind that behavior?" instead of "Here's what you did wrong," which creates the conditions for real development.

What we cover

  • The 4-point Praise Structure for high-quality positive feedback
  • The No-Drama Feedback Model for constructive feedback that's both kind and direct
  • Asking for feedback that produces useful input
  • Receiving feedback with grace

Participant impact and skill development

  • High quality, constructive conversations that lead to understanding, alignment, and behavior change
  • Improved trust and engagement
  • Lower barrier to providing and asking for feedback
  • Shared language for constructing a culture of feedback

I shy away from giving constructive feedback thinking that it might burn bridges with my colleagues. But this course helped me to format it in a way that is deliverable and the other person does not take it negatively.
