Workshop 4 - Unleashing the Potential - take a quantum Leap with your Feedback
Giving feedback is an essential leadership activity. It is a topic included in most leadership development programs, usually with an emphasis on giving “constructive “feedback and having “difficult” conversations. So how effective are leaders at this competency?
Research shows that the feedback leaders provide is often ineffective. In fact, it is routinely destructive rather than constructive. In short, a lot of feedback given in the workplace is not actually helpful. And organisational surveys add complexity to our understanding of feedback. In culture and engagement
surveys, leader self-ratings of their effectiveness with giving feedback often exceeds staff rating of whether or not they receive feedback.
- What is being missed in the current thinking and practice of providing feedback?
- What really works when it comes to giving feedback and what doesn’t?
- How can leaders provide feedback that has a positive impact on performance?
Contemporary neuroscience provides a fresh perspective on this essential leadership practice and opens the door for leaders to rethink their approach feedback so they can successfully foster performance improvement and avoid (or even eliminate) the need to have “difficult” conversations.
