• To clarify what makes useful, constructive feedback.
• To develop the participants’ ability to give constructive feedback.
• To consider how it feels to be on the receiving end of destructive or unhelpful feedback.

Group Size:
This module can be used with groups of up to 12 participants. It’s also suitable for 1-1 training.

Useful For:
Staff at all levels.

You'll Need:
• Nothing other than the materials provided.

Notes:
The suggested time for this module is based on the assumption that pre-work has covered the essential elements of positive feedback.

The activity is designed to help participants improve their ability to offer feedback in a way that is constructive and helpful and leads to positive performance. It works particularly well following the Introduction to Giving Feedback (R) module in Trainers’ Library (which covers the essential elements mentioned above).

The activity in this module can be used as the basis of a 1:1 coaching discussion.

Remote/Virtual Delivery:
Remote Delivery requires a system that as an absolute minimum provides the following functionality:
• Face-to-face discussion.
• Share screen.
• Chat.
• Share files.

In addition, we strongly recommend using a system that provides for:
• Polls/Quizzes (optional).
• Breakout Rooms (required).
