Giving and Receiving Feedback

Course Code: VILT-GRF

  • 90-minute live session delivered virtually or in-person (Perfect for use as part of a blended learning programme)

  • This is available for groups and teams

  • Part of our Core Library

It’s often said that feedback is like a gift – but why does it sometimes feel like an attack instead? We need to remember that the true purpose of feedback is to either motivate someone to continue doing what they’re doing well, or to help them redirect negative or unsuccessful behavior to have better future outcomes.
So, when giving feedback, we need to maintain a positive intent and strive for a positive outcome. We not only have to care enough to offer the gift of feedback… we also need to care enough to deliver it in a way that is helpful for the other person.
To ensure that we maximize the true value of the feedback we give, before we open our mouths to say anything we need to give very careful consideration to the “how,” “why,” “what,” “where,” and “when” of our message.
This virtual session will provide you with the knowledge and skills you need to feel more comfortable and confident when giving feedback; and also when asking for and receiving feedback. You will explore the true purposes of feedback and learn the “golden rules.” Then, you will apply what you’ve learned to a structured feedback process and have the opportunity to practice your delivery

 

  • Have you ever delivered a piece of feedback that’s been poorly received?
  • Do you ever avoid giving the feedback you know you need to give?
  • Are you confident that your feedback will achieve its intended purpose every time?
  • Are you sometimes uncertain how to respond when someone else offers you feedback?
  • Would you like to practice your feedback skills in a safe and confidential environment?

By the end of this session, you will be able to:

  • Identify the key best practice elements of giving feedback
  • Plan and prepare effectively for feedback conversations
  • Use the BORA model to both give and receive feedback
