Using Feedback Effectively

Giving feedback is a necessary and important part of workplace relationships, whether you are working with a peer, manager, staff member or customer. Learn how to turn a situation that many times ends in defensiveness or anger into a positive conversation that strengthens the working relationship and contributes to increased productivity. In this workshop you will learn how to:

  • differentiate between fact and opinion
  • avoid using verbal hooks that lead to defensiveness and anger
  • respond to challenging rebuttals and diffuse tension
  • stay focused and on-track during the feedback conversation
