Giving feedback can be uncomfortable and lengthy, but it can also be quick and easy.  With four steps, you can encourage the best behaviors in 15 seconds with no regrets.

Show Notes:

Ask a group of employees if they would like to receive more direct feedback about their performance and the vast majority will say yes.
Ask a group of managers if they provide enough feedback to their employees and they will say yes. – Both can’t be true.
The goal of feedback is to encourage the best behaviors and discourage the worst behaviors.

    • May I give you some feedback?

      When you come late to the meeting for the 7th time

      It demonstrates a lack of respect for the rest of the team

      How can you be early or on time to future meetings?

    • Can I share something with you?

      When you volunteered to take on that difficult project

      It builds trust with the team and calls them forward into accepting greater challenges
