Your Team Members Aren't Getting Enough Feedback—Especially the Kind That Helps Them Grow
Let's face it, no one really likes to deliver (or receive) constructive feedback--the tough kind. In my Manager Development programs, over 70% of managers indicate they've delayed or ignored giving tough feedback over fear of how it would be received. And everyone admits they've stumbled through more than a few of these conversations. Sadly, a majority of managers indicate they've never been trained or coached on succeeding with these challenging conversations. Finally, a whopping 80% of individuals I've polled indicate wanting more and higher quality feedback from their managers!
Design and Deliver Feedback Discussions with Confidence
Quality, timely, behavioral feedback promotes learning and supports the emergence of high performance. Yet, researchers have proven that just the idea of giving feedback fires up the fear centers in a manager's brain. No wonder so many of these conversations go sideways, frustrating everyone instead of promoting a healthy dialog about continuous improvement and growth. The Performance Feedback Skills Boot Camp teaches you how to design and deliver feedback discussions that generate positive outcomes. And, you learn how to get the fear out of these conversations.
In two 2-hour sessions, you learn how to design and deliver quality feedback using the B.I.T.Q. (Behavior/Impact/Timing/Question) framework as well as how to promote a constructive dialog, even when the topic is tough for all parties. By using the design approach, you chase the fear out of feedback and learn to engage calmly and professionally in every situation.
Here's What You'll Learn:
Why feedback is so tough for all of us.
Where most feedback discussions go wrong & how to avoid these common mistakes.
How to assess your situation and then design the proper strategy for promoting a quality dialog on improving performance.
How to use questions to focus on the future instead of excavating the past.
How to use the B.I.T.Q. framework to ensure you open your feedback discussion in the best possible manner.
How to navigate when conversations go sideways and you need to recover.
Why feedback flows in 3-directions (up, down, sideways) and how to help your team members strengthen their competence and confidence for giving and receiving feedback.
