The power of feedback
When giving others feedback, ask yourself what information they might need to make meaningful change.
Giving good feedback requires an awareness of both what you’re saying, and how you say it.
- Make it personal, provide specific examples, and notice how things have changed over time.
- Reassure the person that you are trying to help them be a better version of themselves, that you are in their corner.
- Be aware of your tone. You’re a team member, not an accuser.
- Choose your timing wisely. At the end of a busy work day is probably not the time to give constructive feedback.
