Those who succeed in highly competitive environments tend to adopt a Collaborative Competitive mindset of continuous growth and make it easy for others to give them feedback. Feedback is defined as “information that enables you to develop or improve your performance, usually given after an event or performance.”

Research has shown that honest feedback from management is one of the most important elements necessary to advance women’s careers. Yet many women find it challenging to obtain candid feedback at work. This seminar teaches how to:

• Ask for and receive four types of feedback: developmental, idea generation, stretch, and supportive in a way that will increase the frequency and usefulness of the information.

• Handle feedback conversations and common barriers including managing emotional reactions and working in an environment in which feedback is not commonplace.

Target Audience: General professional population, managers, and senior leaders. This can be directed to an all-female audience

Delivery: One-hour program includes descriptions and demonstration of how give/receive feedback correctly and incorrectly. The group will break into smaller groups to practice.
