"We have a vision: to decisively improve companies' feedback culture! That's why our motto is: Feedforward instead of feedback. In Feedback Training for Leaders, we train contemporary feedback methods that help employees and teams grow."

Overview

Leaders need feedback training! Because hardly any other topic affects employees and managers as much as feedback. It is still a challenge for many leaders to give clear and appreciative feedback to employees. Feedback is still the number one management tool, because managers can use it to achieve so many positive things: motivating and developing employees, showing appreciation and interest – not only with positive but also with critical feedback.

In Feedback Training for Managers, we address all essential aspects of the topic: verbal and non-verbal feedback, as well as personal attitude.

Who is this for?

For leaders and team leads who want to give effective feedback and reduce reactions

For leaders who want to review and reflect on their feedback style

For managers who want to establish a positive feedback culture

Training goals and content can be agreed on an individual basis. Here are some examples:

Formulating feedback in a behaviour-oriented way and optimising it
Knowing how to deal with feedback as a leader
Guidelines and ideas for establishing a positive feedback culture in your own team
Training of (critical) feedback based on your own business cases
Intensive video feedback to analyse the existing feedback style and its optimisation
Learning how to apply the feedforward approach

Procedure

The training starts with the basic principles of good feedback and an appreciative, behaviour-oriented, constructive feedback technique. We teach the must-knows of giving and receiving feedback through practical exercises and group discussions. We also get into the feedforward approach: a combination of technique and mindset that makes it possible to give (critical) feedback with ease, maintaining positive energy.

The rest of the training process is dedicated to practice. The new learning is strengthened. Based on your own examples, personal feedback style is refined in small groups. Video feedback is also used to analyse and optimise non-verbal, i.e. body language signals.

Finally, we also take a look at the topic of culture and how leaders can support and help shape a positive feedback culture in the team and the whole organisation.
