Course Description:
Consider the last time you delivered or received feedback as a manager: wer
e you filled with joy or dread? If you fall into that second camp\, let’s t
alk! For many of us\, being on both sides of the feedback loop can be anxie
ty-inducing and challenging. In this session\, we will talk through strateg
ies to become more confident and effective in both giving and receiving fee
dback. Let’s maximize the potential we have in these conversations by appro
aching them with care and clarity. In this workshop\, we will be using an i
nteractive approach to discuss strategies to improve our relationship with
feedback.
Course Objectives:
By the end of this
session\, participants will be able to describe components of effective fe
edback and apply multiple techniques in delivering actionable feedback. Lea
rners will also be able to plan opportunities to collect useful feedback\,
demonstrate how to professionally receive feedback\, and implement feedback
accurately and effectively.
