The hard stuff3
how to keep feedback from being empty or
demoralizing?
Forget the “f” wordand its friends.
Instead, entice the other to want to hear what you have to
contribute, your gift.
Start by getting related and asking questions
* I sense it’s been challenging for you to…* Wondering what it’s been like for you to…* What do you think the impact has been?
* What do you think was missing?
“Here are some things that could be valuable for you to
work on”
Keep it light and actionable
Remember: Feedback is a gift.For the other person.
