March 14 Workshop with Eric Zackrison

Description

In this workshop participants will discuss why feedback is so often avoided or delivered poorly, explore some tools for providing feedback more successfully, and then take some time to apply this knowledge to situations specific to them. The workshop's goal is for participants to not only leave ready to engage in better feedback right away, but also have some tools to receive better feedback for themselves. 

At the end of this workshop participants will have:

• An understanding of why and how feedback is so often delivered poorly (or not delivered at all)
• A recognition of what needs to be present for feedback to be more effective
• The skills to be able to give more effective feedback 

Top Takeaways

• Feedback is one of the primary tools needed to lead effectively
