Have you ever been given feedback that you weren’t sure what to do with? What makes feedback useful? How can you give better feedback? Giving feedback is hard! And we often don’t have great examples or experiences on how to do it well. Worse yet, when it’s part of our job it’s rarely the focus of our responsibilities and it’s difficult to find time to practice!
Join Charlotte Chang and Matt Barcomb, coaches with Industrial Logic, as they discuss how to get better at giving feedback and how to turn ineffective feedback into meaningful, constructive actions.
