Feedback, at its best, is a conversation between two or more parties, intended to move the recipient(s) forward. If we think of feedback as a gift, how we navigate the box we've been given? Perhaps it was framed or "wrapped" nicely with a bow that makes us want to look inside. Or maybe the box is covered in spikes that makes it difficult to unpack, even though it may contain useful tools to help us move forward.
We developed a short video on feedback for a partnership with Microsoft, and it is one of our most frequently viewed videos. We invite you to use it as a conversation starter with your team. You might allocate about 30 minutes to use the video as a conversation starter with your team. Reflecting on and sharing our own experiences can us think about how to frame future feedback so that it is received in a way that aligns with our intentions.
