On giving feedback, do you wish you. . .
- Had the courage and skill to give feedback?
- Could give people feedback in a way that they wouldn't become defensive?
- Could give really helpful feedback?
- Could teach people how you want to be treated?
- Could let people know the impact they have on you when they do or say certain things
- Knew how to give people feedback that motivated them to change their behavior?
- Had some good communication models for how to give feedback to make it easier?
- Could give feedback in a way that admits you're human and make mistakes, too?
On receiving feedback, do you . . .
- Wish you could receive feedback without becoming defensive?
- Wish you had a simple communication model to help you receive feedback better?
- Wonder if you have to agree to change if you receive feedback?
- Wonder what to say after you've received feedback?
We learn why it's important to be able to give and receive feedback well. We learn the
communication skills of giving and receiving feedback without hurting each other's feelings,
along with easy models, and we practice, practice, practice so you will actually use
the communication skills after the workshop.
THIS IS A LIFE SKILL!
