Details

You know feedback is important and you know why. You may have read articles or books about specific models or theories—so why does it still feel so difficult to say the hard thing out loud when the moment actually arrives.

This three-session workshop is for leaders like you who already know the basics of feedback and want to close the gap between knowing the model and implementing it: showing you care while being direct, without anxiety undermining the conversation.

We’ll show you how to give feedback confidently, receive it openly, and lead conversations that build trust and accountability on your team.

Whether you’re preparing for a tough one-on-one or you’re just tired of rehearsing conversations you can’t bring yourself to actually have, this workshop gives you the tools to move from understanding feedback to actually delivering it.
