EP07-LQOTD-07-How to give constructive feedback?
As a startup manager we have to learn leadership on the fly. That is why we want to bring bitesize leadership education to you as a startup leader.
The Format "Leadership Question of the Day" is a short answer to a leadership question we received and will be published every morning ready for you to start the day.
Read along:
Leadership question of the day. How do you give constructive feedback? That's a difficult one for a lot of people, including me. I'm not good at that all the time. That's why I'm putting these videos out. What's important when you do constructive feedback?
First is to do constructive feedback, not just feedback.
Constructive feedback is feedback where people can learn from, where your team members can learn from. Then be specific with the feedback you give. Explain what it is about. Explain it from your perspective. Give examples where you explain what the feedback is about, how you see it, and what's the result that's happening.
And then ask questions. Let the other person talk and open up a conversation. It's not you pushing your feedback to the other person, which is constructive, but if the other person can't accept it. You do something wrong.
Simple, short. That's it for today.
